Abstract
The aim of the text is to discuss, based on a survey of Higher Education students, academic satisfaction as a factor for promoting academic engagement. In addition, it examined sociodemographic factors capable of affecting students' academic satisfaction. The survey was conducted using a virtual questionnaire that had 320 valid responses of students from public and private institutions. In the analysis of the data obtained, three types of statistical tests were used: descriptive statistics, multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA - Multivariate Analysis of Variance) and analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results showed that, in general, students feel academically satisfied with the training opportunities in Higher Education and that the sociodemographic variables, completion of high school, exercise of labor activity and exercise of research activity in the Education Institution affect, significantly, academic satisfaction. These results are important, because based on information about sociodemographic factors of their students, Higher Education Institutions can promote efficient actions to promote academic satisfaction and the consequent engagement of the student, through the generation of an educational environment capable of generate meaning and bond.
