“…Por otro lado, Álvarez et al (2018) de formación y las necesidades del mercado, pero haciendo énfasis en la parte creativa, la cual obtiene una menor valoración dentro del estudio. Para Guerrero et al (2014) son tan importantes las habilidades duras, relacionadas con el conocimiento técnico de la profesión, como las blandas, las cuales facilitan aspectos como la comunicación asertiva, el trabajo en economía o el aprendizaje continuo.…”

Las prácticas profesionales son una forma de validar la pertinencia de los programas académicos, al evaluar el desempeño de los practicantes en entornos reales en donde se requiere la aplicación del conocimiento adquirido; en este sentido, el presente artículo tiene como objetivo hacer un análisis acerca de la percepción de las competencias desarrolladas por practicantes de Tecnología en Producción Industrial e Ingeniería Industrial, de una institución universitaria de la ciudad de Medellín. Para tal efecto, se hizo un comparativo de la percepción de estudiantes, docentes y empresas, en relación con las competencias del Ser, el Saber y el Saber-Hacer, lo cual se complementó con la encuesta institucional desarrollada por la oficina de prácticas de dicha institución, a partir de una metodología descriptiva con enfoque mixto, no experimental, transeccional – correlacional. Como resultado del estudio estadístico se rechazó la hipótesis planteada para los grupos de interés, lo cual implica que existen diferencias en la percepción de estos, frente al desarrollo de competencias profesionales y su aplicación en las organizaciones. Se resalta como conclusión, para la población estudiada, la importancia de la relación entre las competencias adquiridas en el proceso formativo y un adecuado desempeño en la práctica profesional.

“…In the field of engineering, companies require future engineers to have a wide range of competences that allow them to meet labor market expectations and to face successfully challenges that the changing world is promoting [72]. From this point of view, engineering education must add to main subject areas those competences that help them into entrepreneurial, environmental and social contexts and the understanding of professionals' characteristics [73][74][75][76].…”

Projects have become an essential instrument for the success of universities. In a context of globalization and increasing complexity, they must sharpen their resourcefulness to face these challenges and adapt to this changing environment. To reach these objectives, they undertake a series of activities of a unique, concrete and temporary nature, not always technical but managerial ones. If universities work with people on projects in the production, transmission and dissemination of knowledge, then they link with society to solve its problems. For this reason, teaching and research staff (TRS) should promote a range of professional project management (PM) competences in different areas for the proper management of the projects in which they take part. Through a Delphi technique, a panel of twenty-four accredited teaching experts who are carrying out significant research and holding directive roles, measured the importance of acquiring and/or improving professional PM competences by their TRS. Consensus and stability reached after two rounds of consultation confirmed there are a series of crucial competences for the practice of relevant teaching and pioneer research. Results obtained are the basis for a gap plan that allows the TRS to participate in and/or lead university projects with greater self-confidence and personal motivation.

“…Despite the increasing use of the limitations refers to the virtual tool that is used for follow-up of the projects, in the case of the institution, MOODLE. According to Guerrero et al (2013), the Moodle virtual platform is strategic in supporting the integration and monitoring of the teacher who, through this tool, according to the management of access to software, facilitates active student learning. In this tool, not only project activities are carried out in a practical and organized, but also facilitates teacher-student interaction, promoting agility necessary feedback and records of discussions over the development.…”

To include interdisciplinary projects in the learning process provides a development to the students that goes beyond the acquired knowledge and develops the expected competencies for the profession according to the proposal of each project. This article, developed in a private higher education institution in Brazilian avant-garde in use of active methodology in teaching applied to the production engineering graduation, presents the Project Led Education (PLE), teaching methodology that through a project, integrates disciplines of a specific school year. The projects, distributed over the first eight semesters of the course are described with their contributions of each discipline respectively and the used evaluation process highlights the importance of application the projects in relation to the general curriculum of the course, and besides, to leave suggestions for future research proposals.
