Comparison of ideal vocational profiles against real vocational profiles and their relationship with academic performance at the Technological University of Leon

In this research, the relationship between the ideal vocational profile and the real vocational profiles of students in the Virtual Environments and Digital Business (EVN) and Environmental Chemistry (QA) courses, generation 2020-2022, at the Technological University of León, was explored. The results of the vocational preferences of the Single Registration System for Higher Education Applicants (SUREDSU) were used and compared with the qualification of the stay process. The sample consisted of 88 students, 38 from the EVN course and 50 from the QA course. The results allow us to identify that the ideal vocational profile coincides with excellent performance, but there are also combinations with other complementary areas that enable good academic performance. This work invites us to expand the research to identify the additional factors that influenced these results, in order to recognize and enhance them.
