For which a methodological designwas used to frame this problem in the positivist paradigm, with a quantitative approach from a field research, which presents a descriptive level.The study population consisted of 120 students in the first semesters of the school of education, faculty ofeducation of the Metropolitan University UMET. The population was of finite type. The data collection technique was the survey and the dichotomous questionnaire was used as an instrument. The analysis technique was the percentage statistic. It was found that 58% of those consulted do not know what femicide is, in addition to the fact that 69% of those consulted indicated that they are witnesses of family violence.Among the conclusions: Femicide is a legal concept coined in a more specific manner than homicide; it is the extreme form of violence against women. It does not respond to a specific situation or actors, since it takes place both in times of peace and in times of armed conflict, and the women victims do not have a unique age range profile
