AGUADO-LOPEZ, Eduardo  and  BECERRIL-GARCIA, Arianna. Mexican Public Universities: Academic Evaluation Regulations as Performative Devices. Perfiles educativos [online]. 2022, vol.44, n.175, pp.42-61.  Epub May 23, 2022. ISSN 0185-2698.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iisue.24486167e.2022.175.60397.

The current article analyzes the Teaching Career Program in State Public Universities, an evaluation instrument promoted at the Federal level in Mexico, in order to determine its integral functioning and conceptual orientation. To do this, we identified the tasks and products that it evaluates, as well as their evaluation and weighting logic. The program is analyzed based on its operating standards in nine institutions, taking into account their respective regulations and most recent annexed documents. The cases studied are those of the state public universities of Aguascalientes, Colima, the State of Mexico, Guadalajara, Guanajuato, Sonora, Querétaro, Veracruz and Yucatán. The program has been set forth as a performative device that seeks to build a specific academic-researcher profile based on particular evaluation criteria; It seeks primarily to promote teaching, and in the field of research it is mainly focused on promoting the publication of scientific articles with presence in commercial databases and the registry of intellectual property instruments.

Keywords : Academic evaluation; Higher education institutions; Public universities; Social Sciences; Economic stimuli.
