Tendencias demográficas en la educación en gestión de proyectos: Un caso de estudio en el contexto peruano (2013-2023)

This study analyzes the demographic evolution of project management education in Peru during the period 2013-2023, focusing on gender, age, academic speciality and employment sector. Using a quantitative approach, data from 2,231 Peruvian project management students was analyzed. The results reveal sustained growth in the number of students, with an Annual Average Growth Rate (AAGR) of 9.28%. There has been a significant increase in female participation, with an AAGR of 12.90% compared to 7.77% for males, which shows progress towards gender equality. In addition, there is evidence of increasing diversification in academic specializations and non-traditional employment sectors such as education and healthcare. Additionally, a comparison of pre- and post-pandemic data also reveals significant adaptations in educational dynamics. The importance of promoting diversity and gender equity, recognizing the impact of generational dynamics, and adapting project management education to the increasing diversification of academic profiles and employment sectors are discussed.
