Abstract

La transición demográfica en Colombia, así como en el mundo, ha dado paso a una reestructuración de la composición por edad de la población que acarrea nuevos retos a diversos sectores de la sociedad. En este trabajo, analizamos este fenómeno y sus efectos sobre la demanda por educación superior y en particular, sobre la población universitaria. A través del análisis de datos censales, y los registros administrativos de las pruebas Saber 11 y de las instituciones de educación superior, encontramos un decrecimiento reciente del tamano de las cohortes de estudiantes que finalizan el bachillerato y, paralelamente, una disminución de la demanda por educación superior. En este documento argumentamos que las causas de estos hechos, que además difieren entre regiones, son estructurales y relacionadas con la disminución de la fecundidad en Colombia
