NARRO ROBLES, José  e  ARREDONDO GALVAN, Martiniano. Tutorship: A fundamental process in the training of university students. Perfiles educativos [online]. 2013, vol.35, n.141, pp.132-151. ISSN 0185-2698.

This article aims to show how convenient and necessary it is to promote tutorship in the domain of higher education. After mentioning the changes that have been implementing in education, and more specifically in the perception and the social representations of the institution and of the role of teachers and students as well, the authors emphasize both the usefulness of tutorship with regards to the recent revaluation of the youth culture and the need to treat students as young people in the perspective of a comprehensive education, not only from a cognitive point of view, but in all their dimensions as individuals. The authors present the background and the current situation of tutorship at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), and also some considerations about the problems and challenges for its appropriate institutional implementation.
