From that moment onward, the incorporation of women in the university sphere has been a continual process that has been accompanied, in the last few decades, by measures based on the principle of equal opportunities between men and women. In this article we present a historical review of the presence of women in the Spanish university sphere, and the case of the measures taken by one specific university (the University of Cantabria) in the wake of this principle. We consider that in order to recognize the wide- reaching effect of the arrival of these kinds of actions, it is necessary to know the important process of change undergone in the higher education of women in the last one hundred years.RESUMEN: La relación entre las mujeres y las universidades se inició en España hace poco más de un siglo, el momento en que las primeras mujeres estudiantes se matricularon en cursos universitarios -mujeres que decidieron romper con los tabúes de su época y acceder a este nivel de educción. Desde ese momento en adelante, la incorporación de la mujer en el ámbito universitario ha sido un proceso continuo que ha ido acompañado, en las últimas décadas, por medidas basadas en el principio de la igualdad de oportunidades entre hombres y mujeres. En este artículo se presenta una revisión histórica de la presencia de las mujeres en el ámbito universitario español, y el caso de las medidas adoptadas por una universidad específica (la Universidad de Cantabria) como consecuencia de este principio. Consideramos que con la finalidad de reconocer el efecto de gran alcance de la llegada de este tipo de acciones, es necesario conocer el importante proceso de cambio experimentado en la educación superior de las mujeres en los últimos cien años.Hipatia PressUniversidad de Cantabria20132013-01-01journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501NAhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_be7fb7dd8ff6fe43info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://hdl.handle.net/10902/6370Géneros: Multidisciplinary Journal of Gender Studies, 2013, 2(3), 255-283reponame:UCrea Repositorio Abierto de la Universidad de Cantabriainstname:Universidad de Cantabria (UC)Inglésengopen accesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Attribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:repositorio.unican.es:10902/63702026-06-02T12:39:31Z
