Abstract

To learn about the teaching and research activities performed by the academicians of public technological institutes (IPT), the information of three surveys performed in Mexico in 1992, 2000 and 2007-2008 related to three national studies is used. This first analysis explores each of the data bases generated in these studies to determine how many academicians of the public technological institutes participated in the sample, the number of groups served, the percentage of time dedicated to teaching and research, membership of the Faculty Improvement Program (Promep) of the National System of Researchers (SNI). The preliminary information allows us to delve into the knowledge of academic productivity in teaching and research of the academicians of said institutes and provides an idea of the changes that occurred from 1992 to 2008 in these public higher education institutions.
