description For higher education institutions, innovation becomes a key and consubstantial objective with its activity of training professionals, who provide solutions to society's problems. Universities invest huge resources to achieve their goals in innovation; however, these investments are not always perceived by the student body, which generates feelings of dissatisfaction and lack of commitment. The purpose of this article is to know the perception of those who study in public, cofounded and private universities, in the province of Pichincha, in Ecuador, about the resources made available by their universities, in order to guide public entities on the innovation needs that universities present. For this reason, during the period between March and May 2019, surveys were applied to a sample of 768 university bachelor students, from the province of Pichincha, to evaluate four categories of items, differentiating in the study the perception of students of social and exact sciences, and coming from different types of universities. The results indicate that those who study in public universities have a different perception of those who attend private and cofounded universities and those aspects of infrastructure and teaching related are the most relevant, so it is concluded that it is recommendable to prioritize investment in innovation in the mentioned topics, starting from the type of faculties and universities where the perception is more negative.

Para las universidades, la innovación se convierte en un objetivo clave, y consustancial con su actividad de formar profesionales que aporten con soluciones a los problemas de la sociedad. Estas instituciones de educación superior invierten ingentes recursos para alcanzar sus metas en innovación; sin embargo, tales inversiones no siempre son percibidas por el estudiantado, lo cual genera sentimientos de insatisfacción y falta de compromiso. El objetivo de este artículo es conocer la percepción de quienes estudian en las universidades públicas –cofinanciadas y privadas de la provincia de Pichincha, en Ecuador–, con respecto a los recursos puestos a disposición por sus universidades, para orientar a las entidades públicas sobre las necesidades de innovación que en estas se presentan. Así, durante marzo y mayo de 2019, se aplicaron encuestas a una muestra de 768 estudiantes de pregrado de la mencionada provincia y se pudo evaluar con ello cuatro categorías de ítems, que evidenciaron las diferencias de percepción entre el estudiantado de los dos tipos considerados y procedente de diferentes tipos de universidades. Los resultados indican que quienes estudian en universidades públicas tienen una percepción diferente de quienes asisten a universidades privadas y cofinanciadas, y que los aspectos de infraestructura y son los más relevantes. En conclusión se recomienda priorizar la inversión en innovación, en los temas mencionados a partir de los tipos de facultades y universidades en donde la percepción es más negativa.
