Zusammenfassung

The social conjuncture of a country and, according to the literature, sociodemographic variables determine the academic achievement in Higher Education. The aim of the present study is to analyze these variables taking into account, at the same time, the degree course and the academic year of 598 students of Higher Education in Angola. Results show that male students and those whose parents have elementary studies have a higher academic achievement. There are no significative differences with age and marital status, but significative differences exist with the degree program. Finally, academic achievement gets better as the students progress throughout their studies.
