Academic performance is a multifactorial phenomenon. The article analyzes the perception of academic performance of students who make the degree in physical culture and sport in a public university in western Mexico. A descriptive, transversal quantitativeapproach study comprising the 2010-2017 cohorts. As an instrument for gathering data, an adaptation was made of the validated survey by Hernández-Herrera (2016) which consists of 30 items on a Likert scale. That was applied to 223 students. The study reveals important aspects related to knowledge, commitment and student satisfaction with the academic program and with the role developed by teachers.Through the study it is concluded that the academic performance of the students is average, that they are committed and satisfied with the academic program, and that the teachers are valued positively.
