Resumen
Se analizan los primeros egresados de la carrera de Doctorado en Ciencias Naturales con orientación geológica de la Universidad de Buenos Aires, quienes han sido los primeros geólogos recibidos en Argentina. Los diez primeros se graduaron entre 1914 y 1935, de los cuales cinco han sido mujeres. Ellas fueron en este orden las doctoras Edelmira Mórtola, Jova Yussen, Zulema Chiesa, Adela Mangano y Paulina Mühlmann. El análisis de sus diferentes carreras profesionales y académicas muestra que una se dedicó enteramente a la docencia universitaria, dos a la industria petrolera, otra a la minería y una última, de la que se han podido recabar escasos antecedentes, a la docencia secundaria. A pesar que cuatro de ellas se han destacado en su actividad, en ellas predominan los trabajos de gabinete como la mineralogía y la petrografía, con esporádicos trabajos de campo, tarea en la que predominaron los egresados varones. Sin embargo, la preparación adquirida les permitió destacarse en sus trabajos desde Tucumán, a Mendoza y Neuquén, con una buena y sólida actividad profesional. Sólo dos de los primeros diez egresados recibieron el Premio Strobel, la Dra. Mórtola primera egresada, y el Dr. Horacio Harrington. A su vez, la Dra. Mórtola se destacó años más tarde al ser promovida en 1956 a profesora titular de la Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, la primera mujer, después de décadas de predominio exclusivo de los hombres. Esta temprana paridad de género si bien es notable, muestra que ya en las primeras décadas del siglo XX había marcadas diferencias de oportunidades.
The first graduates of the Doctorado in Ciencias Naturales with geological orientation from the University of Buenos Aires, whom have been the first geologists received in Argentina, are analyzed. The first ten have graduated between 1914 and 1935, of which five have been women. They were, in this order, doctors Edelmira Mórtola, Jova Yussen, Zulema Chiesa, Adela Mangano and Paulina Mühlmann. The analysis of their different professional and academic careers shows that one has been devoted entirely to university teaching, two to the oil industry, another to mining, and the last one from who little information has been obtained, was a high school teacher. Although four of them have excelled in their activity, it was dominated by laboratory work such as mineralogic and petrographic studies, with sporadic field work, a task in which male graduates predominated. However, the preparation obtained allowed them to stand out in their work from Tucumán, Mendoza and Neuquén, with a good and solid professional activity. Only two of the first ten graduates received the Strobel Award, Dr. Mórtola the first woman graduate, and Dr. Horacio Harrington. In turn, Dr. Mórtola stood out years later when she was promoted in 1956 to Full Professor of the Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, the first woman, after decades of exclusive predominance of men. This early gender parity, although notable, shows that already in the first decades of the XX century there were marked differences in opportunities.
