Factores del desempeño de tesis de pregrado en una universidad peruana: estudio exploratorio

The development of a thesis to obtain a professional degree within the undergraduate training of Industrial Engineering turns out to be an imperative need for our graduates, even more so with the competition that exists at a professional level. However, success in carrying out this work is very limited, since approximately only 20% of students do not fail in this attempt. It is therefore important to determine the reasons why students do not complete this process. In this study, the main causes of this failure are determined from surveys of students and teachers, so that measures can be taken to improve these results.
