Abstract |
In this paper there is a summary of the management program to respond to institutional guidelines (general
framework defined by the University to all of its academic programs) and the challenges of the Engineering
Education, as well as a proposal of management in Higher Education made by an Engineering Faculty for the
2011-2015 period. Thus, it is aimed to create processes of improvement and follow-up to the processes of
teaching, knowledge-generation, and relationship with the environment initiated by the schools that compose the
aforementioned faculty. The methodology of academic and administrative intervention designed by the school
within its management program is also presented in order to evaluate, improve and consolidate the training of
engineers at the Institution; this methodology involves the renovation of curricular structures, reflection upon
classroom work, and consolidation of the processes of follow-up and evaluation of learning outcomes.
