| Summary: |
The incidence factors in the university dropout were characterized at URACCAN, Las Minas University Campus, from 2001 to 2007. Among them, the sociodemographic, institutional and economic factors, linked to the suspension in the studies. An analysis of descriptive quantitative approach of cross section with qualitative elements was carried out. The universe was of 622 students from the municipalities of Waslala, Rosita and Siuna - Mining Triangle - a probabilistic sample of 238, with a confidence level of 0.05. Among the sociodemographic factors of the students, it was noted that 78.2% attended secondary schools in public schools, come from integrated family nuclei of 3 to 7 people in Siuna and Rosita, and in Waslala from 8 to 12. Relevant aspects to determine the abandonment were the age, young people between 17 to 30 years old, mostly single, mestizo people and women with employment. Two types of abandonment were identified, the temporary and the permanent, in the I and II semesters, of the first and second year; this abandonment was classified as early and internal, because they change careers at the same university.

The students worried first about their economic status and then about their professionalization |
