En el rendimiento académico dentro de la universidad influyen muchos factores, los que se manifiestan principalmente en el primer año de la carrera. Sin embargo, los factores influyentes y los resultados que se han presentado en estudios previos no son iguales en diferentes universidades. Este trabajo presenta una aproximación para identificar un grupo de factores o variables que puede incidir en que los estudiantes que ingresan en la carrera de Ciencias de la Computación en la universidad Agostinho Neto, de Angola, puedan tener éxito en dos materias de contenidos esenciales dentro de la carrera: Lógica de Programación y Programación Imperativa. Se analizan desde el punto de vista psicopedagógico y social, las razones que explican la selección de esas variables y se contrasta con un análisis correlacional para estimar la posible asociación entre cada variable independiente y la variable criterio. La información empleada corresponde a tres cursos (unos 800 alumnos). Los resultados de aplicar el estadístico Chi-cuadrado a tablas de contingencia sugieren un grupo de aspectos que más influyen en tener éxito en las asignaturas Lógica de Programación y Programación Imperativa.

The objective of this article is to establish some requirements demanded by the management of human capital in high technology companies of the Cuban pharmaceutical biotechnology sector. The study is based on the use of the logical historical method, the modeling, as well as the documentary analysis, direct observation, and the expert method. In order to comply with the general objective, it was necessary to use the case study as a scientific research method, which allows investigating the human capital management of the High Technology Companies of the Cuban pharmaceutical biotechnology sector, in its real context and with all its complexities associated. The results lead to the establishment of a particular conceptual model that takes into account the singularities of a sector that is distinguished by the intensive use of knowledge and full-cycle companies. In addition, a general application procedure is shown, with specific work procedures, for which the best practices developed in different centers regarding human capital were taken into consideration.
