Formación de maestría en contabilidad en Colombia: una comparación entre las expectativas de los aspirantes y los contenidos curriculares de los programas

In the present study, a comparative analysis is made between the percep­tions that public accountancy students have about the educational offer of the master’s programs in accounting in the country, compared to what those programs actually offer, in order to measure the Euclidean distances and determine the existing gap between both dimensions. These percep­tions are evaluated through the application of surveys to undergraduate students of public accountancy. Furthermore, information regarding the academic offer is added through the collection of data from curriculums and program profiles. As a result, it was observed that perceptions of under­graduate students in accounting for master’s degrees in the same area are significantly different from those offered by higher education institutions in these programs. These differences can be explained by multiple factors such as the undergraduate students’ unawareness about graduate offers or the higher education institutions’ unawareness about the expectations of future professionals.
