RAMOS TOVAR, María Elena; SIEGLIN, Veronika e ZUNIGA CORONADO, María. Opaque transparency... The assignment of academic wages and levels to the academic staff in a university in Northern Mexico. Perfiles educativos [online]. 2013, vol.35, n.141, pp.26-45. ISSN 0185-2698.
This article has as purpose to study the correspondence between the academic quality of male and female scientists who work at a higher education institution in Northern Mexico, their academic appointment (job categories) and the wage bonus they receive from the university based on their academic productivity. By means of the analysis of gathered data variance analysis (análisis de varianza, anova) of information obtained from the institutional website of the Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León (UANL), the Council for Science and Technology (CONACyT) and the Department of Education (SEP), we observe that there is no statistically relevant relationship between the job category and the wage bonus level for high academic productivity of teachers, since those are established periodically by means of assessment systems that are external to the university. The conclusion is that the modernization of higher education is highly subordinated to the political interests of the administration; and that the institutional commitment to improving the quality of academic work does not have a real capacity to catapult the institution to more competitive levels, in Mexico or abroad.
