Abstract
Este artículo analiza los circuitos de movilidad de estudiantes universitarios de La Araucanía que accedieron el año 2016 a la gratuidad. Cabe
señalar que los sujetos de estudio no residen en Temuco, Chile, ciudad donde estudian, por ende realizan dos o más desplazamientos diarios desde su comuna
hacia la capital regional. Dentro de los criterios que se aplican para acceder a la gratuidad destacan: pertenecer a uno de los cinco primeros deciles
socioeconómicos de la población y estar matriculado en carreras de pregrado presenciales, diurnas o vespertinas, dictadas en las instituciones elegibles
(Mineduc, 2015). En tal sentido, se pretende analizar las condiciones y experiencias
de viaje que desarrollan universitarios con el objetivo de cursar estudios, considerando los efectos no advertidos en la promoción de la política de inclusión educativa mediante la gratuidad. Estos efectos encuentran asidero en las diferencias sociales que influyen en el acceso a la educación superior desde un enfoque anclado en la movilidad cotidiana.
The present paper analyzes commuting by university students in the Araucanía Region who had access to free education in 2016. The study subjects were restricted to students who did not live in Temuco, the capital of the region, but who studied there and therefore needed to commute from their homes to the city. The requirements to qualify for free education are as follows: the students must belong to the lowest tenth of the population by socio-economic measures and they must be enrolled in an undergraduate programme requiring personal attendance – day-time or night-school – offered by eligible institutions (Mineduc, 2015). The object of the study was to analyze the conditions and experiences of the students in their daily commute to the university, considering unnoticed aspects that are not included in the promotion of inclusive educational policies by the introduction of free education These aspects are supported by the social differences that affect access to higher education based on the requirement for daily mobility
