Resumen

This academic paper aims to analyze the impact of corporate universities on Peruvian universities from 2000 to 2018. Likewise, it raises a debate on how necessary private for-profit universities are in a growth scenario that includes academic quality. The largest increase in private universities occurred between 2008 and 2012: a period in which they increased from 59 to 89. This corresponded to the start of academic activities of 25 corporate universities and five associative universities. These for-profit higher education institutions have acquired special relevance worldwide in recent years, mainly in our country. Finally, this thesis proposes a simulation system that allows for recreating a scenario without the rules that originated the development and rise of corporate universities
