I am trying to separate the string
"CristinaRodriguezRiveraComputacion210302414RamiroSilvaPerezIndustrial217890453PatriciaDuranSanchezCivil215643525RaulColinGranadosComputacion215678342"
read from a file but when I separate and print this string, the following is not being separated correctly:
Required output:
Cristina Rodríguez Rivera Computación 210302414 //simulating that each string is inside a block of 15 bytes
I don't know what's wrong with the code, I've been trying to figure out if my logic is wrong for a while

I tried out your program and got the extraneous data in the printout. However, when the five work fields were initialized to zeros, ensuring that valid character terminators were in place, the data appeared clean. Following, is the additional code added to ensure the strings contained the data you want.
if(ent != NULL)
{
char nombre[15];
char Paterno[15];
char Materno[15];
char carrera[15];
char matricula[15];
for (int x=0; x < 15; x ) /* Work field initialization */
{
nombre[x] = '\0';
Paterno[x] = '\0';
Materno[x] = '\0';
carrera[x] = '\0';
matricula[x] = '\0';
}
Give that a try.

I think the key problem here is that you aren't terminating the fields with NUL (\0) after copying characters into them.
Consider your first field, nombre. You write data to it on two different lines. But you never write \0 to it anywhere. The data you copy into the field is Cristina, which is 8 characters, so the remaining 7 characters of the field just contain whatever happened to be in memory. When you call printf you get Cristina, but there's no \0, so printf just keeps going and prints whatever, until it finds a \0 that's there by coincidence.
So when you detect the end of a field, you need to add a \0 before moving on to the next field.
There are other issues, though. One is here:
for(int i=0;i<longarch;i ){
if( isupper(dinamico[i]) ){
if( islower(dinamico[i-1]) && islower(dinamico[i 1]) ){
iterador=0;
contador ;
}
Consider what happens the first time through the loop, when i == 0. The isupper call will return true, because the first character of your data is uppercase. It will then execute the next line, which does islower(dianamico[i-1]) to see if the previous character was lowercase. But i == 0 here, so this is accessing the byte before the start of your buffer. You need to avoid this check when i == 0.
You also repeat the code to copy a character into each line twice. You only need to do it once. Your code should look something like:
while (there is more data) {
if (it's the start of a new field) {
add \0 to the end of the current field;
iterador = 0;
contador ;
}
copy character into current field;
iterator ;
}
add \0 to the end of the last field;

I'm glad your code now seems to work.
However, if it were me, I'd make the code a bit more modular.
I'd also use a state machine/variable to simplify the code.
Also, it makes sense to actually read in the data and save it to an array of Alumno structs.
Here is the refactored code. It is annotated:

There are many ways to achieve your objective. I offer this as a working example that outputs both the version in parenthesis and shows how a 'record' (15 chars wide * 5) can be accumulated (for display or storage)...
My hope is that this will provide material to learn more about another way to reach your goal.
void showFlds( char flds[][15], int n ) {
printf( "****\n" );
for( int i = 0; i < n; i )
printf( "'%-15s'\n", flds[i] );
printf( "****\n" );
}
int main() {
char *in =
"CristinaRodriguezRiveraComputacion210302414"
"RamiroSilvaPerezIndustrial217890453"
"PatriciaDuranSanchezCivil215643525"
"RaulColinGranadosComputacion215678342";
const int nFlds = 5;
int fldCnt = 0;
char fldCopys[5][15];
int cCnt = 0;
putchar( '(' );
bool firstDig = true;
for( char *cp = in; *cp; cp ) {
if( cp > in && ( isupper( *cp ) || ( isdigit( *cp ) && firstDig ) ) ) {
fldCopys[ fldCnt ][ cCnt ] = '\0';
if( fldCnt < nFlds ) {
putchar( ' ' );
} else {
printf( ")\n" );
showFlds( fldCopys, fldCnt );
putchar( '(' );
fldCnt = 0;
}
cCnt = 0;
}
putchar( *cp );
fldCopys[ fldCnt ][ cCnt ] = *cp;
firstDig = !isdigit( *cp );
}
printf( ")\n" );
fldCopys[ fldCnt ][ cCnt ] = '\0';
showFlds( fldCopys, fldCnt );
