Resumen:
Sumario:This study aims to review the participation of women in the management of Chilean public universities during 2014 and to analyze glass ceilings that prevent their promotion. Out of 847 management positions, 206 are held by women (24.3%): this participation is concentrated in deaneries or department directors, and is low at higher levels. Through a logit model, its performance is measured considering variables like years of accreditation, presence in QS ranking and financial indicators. It is established that there is no statistical significance to infer that the performance of universities depends on the presence of women or men in management.
