Abstract

The extensive use of information and communication technologies (ICT) has caused changes in all activities of the human being. Theses changes are expressed in a special way in the educational and labor fields because they are interrelated. Various factors influence economic income such as academic level, age and ICT skills, among others. The objective of this research was to analyze the influence of technological and educational aspects on the economic income in Mexico to determine the importance of these and thus identify the skills that individuals must develop for the work environment. The research is transversal. The data were obtained through a semi-structured survey and were analyzed through a multiple linear regression using the ordinary least squares method. In the results it was found that the age, the use of social networks and the academic level (0.50, 0.25, 0.24, respectively) are the variables that most positively influence the economic income of working students. It is concluded that it is important to improve the educational level and ICT skills of the population, as this will allow individuals to increase their income, which will contribute to the reduction of inequality.
