Description
Summary:Higher education is an important link in the economic and social development of countries and the various social and business organizations that comprise them. It is responsible for training professionals who drive development in the regions. However, this premise is met when the training objectives established by higher education institutions and academic programs are consistent and relevant to the existing needs of both companies and the regional environment. In the case of administrative and economic science programs, the development of management, entrepreneurship, leadership, and innovation skills is vital to facilitate the incorporation of professionals into the productive sector. This paper aims to determine the impact of the incorporation of Business Administration graduates into productive activity based on studies conducted between 2011 and 2020. It is based on a mixed-method descriptive research approach addressing qualitative and quantitative aspects. Focusing on information collected during the observation period, it allowed us to understand, from the graduates' perspective, their integration into work and professional settings, their levels of employability, and their entrepreneurship. It is found that during the COVID pandemic in 2020, there was a small decrease in the employability rate of graduates, which contrasted with a significant increase in the number of entrepreneurships, in response to the effects of the crisis caused by the pandemic.
