Entrants, enrolment and titles
2007–2026Three counts of the same institution. Undergraduate enrolment is everyone enrolled that year, in any year of their programme; first-year entrants are the people who started; titles are the undergraduate titles and degrees it awarded.
What you can study here
2026 · mifuturo.clEvery generic programme with a page of its own that took first-year entrants here in 2026, with its campuses and list fee from Mineduc's register, and what SIES publishes on mifuturo.cl for this institution and programme: employment the year after the title, the band of the monthly income in the fourth year, and first-year retention. Each programme's name opens what this institution's own students say about it — who stays, who graduates, how long it takes — next to the programme across the country.
The first-year dropout column is PuroChile's own count on Mineduc's register: of everyone who started the programme here in 2023–2025, the share enrolled at no institution at all the following year — the three cohorts added up, never an average of three rates — beside the same programme across Chile. Changing programme or institution is not dropping out, and some who drop out come back later. “—” is a programme with fewer than 30 entrants here in those years. Across all its undergraduate programmes, 11.0% of the 574 people who started here in 2023–2025 were enrolled nowhere the following year; across every university programme, 8.1%.

What it teaches
2026Everyone enrolled in an undergraduate programme here in 2026, 941 enrolments, by CINE-F field and SIES generic programme. Each tile is a programme and its area is its share; click a field's band to open it, or a tile to see that programme across the country.
Mean annual list fee of its undergraduate enrolment: $4,039,000 (universities: $5,901,000). It is the published price of each programme averaged over the students enrolled in it, not what each one pays: free tuition (gratuidad), scholarships and loans are not subtracted.
By SIES's generic programme, largest intake first. Only programmes that reached 10 entrants here in some year are listed; the rest are added together at the end. The change compares the first three years with the last three and is only given where both average at least 20 entrants.

Who studies here
undergraduate · 2026Its undergraduate enrolment of 2026, each split drawn over the same split for all universities. Every bar is a share of its own total, so the two can be compared whatever their size. How the first year came in is the institution's own declaration to SIES.
Where its entrants come from
2024–2026The comuna of their school, not of their home. First-year entrants of 2024–2026, followed by their masked id to the last time they finished secondary school before starting. Mineduc publishes no home address, and the school is where four years of their education happened. 690 of 702 (98.3%) have such a record since 2006; the rest — who left school earlier, studied abroad or validated their studies — are not placed.
93.3% finished school in Aysén, the region of its main campus.
| Coyhaique | 487 | 70.6% |
| Aysén | 110 | 15.9% |
| Cisnes | 21 | 3.0% |
| Chile Chico | 9 | 1.3% |
| Cochrane | 7 | 1.0% |
| Río Ibáñez | 7 | 1.0% |
| O'Higgins | 3 | 0.4% |
| Punta Arenas | 3 | 0.4% |
34 more comunas sent fewer than 3 each, together 43 entrants; they are not named.
How they chose it
DEMRE · 2021–2026Centralised admission only. DEMRE's register of the universities in the national admission system: every preference of every regular applicant, and who enrolled through it. Direct admission — the way most people enter an institute or a CFT, and some university programmes — is not in it. In 2026, 289 applicants put a programme of Universidad de Aysen as their first choice and 501 included one somewhere on their list.
The order of the programme they enrolled in, on the list they applied with.
PAES scale, which starts in 2023; the years before are another test on another scale and are not drawn. Each bar is a share of its own entrants.
Who is still here a year later
cohorts 2017–2025Each year's first-year entrants, followed into the next year's register: still enrolled here (in any programme), enrolled at another institution, or not enrolled anywhere. It is SIES's first-year retention, counted on the published register; a cohort under 30 people has no rate.
How long it really takes
titles 2023–2025Undergraduate titles of 2023–2025 in regular plans: the time from the start of the semester they entered (March or August) to the date of the title, in semesters, against the formal length the institution declares. Special and continuation plans are left out, because they take in people with earlier studies whose clock did not start at entry. 189 of 189 titles have the dates to be measured.
| Generic programme (SIES) | Titles | Formal, years | Real, years | On time | Real in Chile |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Trabajo Social | 60 | 5.0 | 6.1 | 20% | 5.0 |
| Ingeniería Civil Industrial | 29 | 5.0 | 5.8 | 38% | 6.9 |
| Enfermería | 28 | 5.0 | 6.0 | 36% | 6.0 |
| Psicología | 28 | 5.0 | 5.3 | 61% | 5.7 |
| Obstetricia y Puericultura | 19 | 5.0 | 6.2 | 16% | 6.1 |
| Agronomía | 15 | 5.0 | 6.3 | 20% | 7.2 |
Programmes with at least ten titles in the three years. Years are means over every title, formal and real alike; "on time" is the share titled within the formal length. The last column is the same generic programme at every institution in Chile.
Where its campuses are
1 commune · 2026Where it teaches, not where its students are from. First-year entrants of 2026 by the commune of the campus they enrolled at.
| Coyhaique | 298 |
Postgraduate
2007–2026First year of a master's or a doctorate, and everyone enrolled in one. At this level the register classifies into broad fields, not programmes.
Research
ANID · 2006–2025The projects ANID (CONICYT until 2019) awarded with Universidad de Aysen as principal institution — the one that answers for the project. Each figure is a count of awarded projects: not publications, not money, not people, and a project with partners counts once, here. The year is the year it was decided.

What it is specialised in: Fondecyt's study groups
Its Fondecyt projects of 2015–2024, by the panel each was evaluated in. Specialisation is Balassa's revealed advantage: the group's share here over its share in Chile; above 1, it weighs more here than in the country. It is computed only for institutions with at least 40 projects in the window, and this one has 10: its shares are shown, its specialisation is not.
| Study group | Its projects declare mostly | Projects | % |
|---|---|---|---|
| Agronomy | ciencias del suelo, fisiologia vegetal and fruticultura y viticultura | 5 | 50.0 |
| Theoretical and experimental physics | fisica teorica y experimental, fisica de solidos and sistemas no lineales | 2 | 20.0 |
| Biology 2 | biologia celular, fisiologia biofisica and inmunologia | 1 | 10.0 |
| Mathematics | analisis, ecuaciones diferenciales and metodos numericos | 1 | 10.0 |
| Earth sciences | oceanografia, geologia y mineralogia and meteorologia y climatologia | 1 | 10.0 |
The newest competitions · 2025–2026
From the 2025 competitions ANID classifies every project by OECD discipline (the second level of the Frascati Manual), and Fondecyt evaluates in new groups. These 2 projects are read apart, by discipline, and are not part of the specialisation above.
ANID's historical register of awarded projects (CC0), cut at 31 December 2025. Institutions are matched to the SIES by name, with an explicit table for ANID's other spellings; foundations, centres and faculties with a legal personality of their own count as their own institution.
