Abstract
La presente es una investigación descriptiva, que tiene como objetivo general
identificar las aspiraciones y expectativas de las mujeres jóvenes adultas, de 18 a 24 años,
estudiantes de educación superior de Lima Metropolitana. La investigación tiene un enfoque
cualitativo, utilizando el método de estudio de caso, con una muestra de 28 mujeres jóvenes
adultas. Las técnicas utilizadas para recopilar información han sido: (a) entrevista en
profundidad, (b) observación y (c) notas de campo.
Los resultados indican que las mujeres jóvenes de Lima estudiantes universitarias no
han sido afectadas por estereotipos de género para la elección de su carrera, ya que algunas
estudian psicología y otras economía, derecho o incluso ingeniería. Estas mujeres tienen
aspiraciones y expectativas que se pueden clasificar en tres grandes grupos: (a) relacionadas
con sus estudios, (b) de desarrollo profesional, y (c) de desarrollo personal. En el aspecto
académico, el desarrollo futuro de las jóvenes estudiantes universitarias depende
principalmente de sus capacidades y habilidades, incluso por encima del prestigio de la
universidad donde estudian. Es común que estas jóvenes aspiren a continuar estudios de
postgrado una vez que se gradúen.
La mayoría de las entrevistadas se perciben a futuro como felices, logrando
desarrollar en paralelo su carrera con una relación de pareja estable y la formación de una
familia. Lo que muestra que las aspiraciones y expectativas reflejan el ideal de vida,
considerando lo que se quiere llegar a ser o a tener. Aspiran en su mayoría a trabajar en el
sector privado, a tener experiencia de trabajo en el extranjero y a ocupar posiciones
gerenciales, al mismo tiempo que esperan adquirir una vivienda y ayudar a sus padres
