Continuous improvement process in the Electronic Engineering program: application of rubric in the course “Formulation and Management of Electronic Projects”

Abstract

This research is part of the search for continuous improvement as part of the accreditation of the Electronic Engineering program and establishes the different paths that have led to determining its own measurement and evaluation plan which, in particular, is specified in the application of a rubric for measuring criteria aligned with two attributes required by the accreditor and internalized by the members of the university to guarantee the academic quality and professional success of our students. These attributes are "Ethics" and "Project Management", which are described in this document from the conception of the idea of the measurement plan, through its processes, and the choice of the course where the application will be made. In this case, it was "Formulation and Management of Electronic Projects", the assignment of criteria and the results that propose an auspicious scope of goals, but that also leaves us with important optimization reflections about the search for academic excellence, contextualization of technological careers, and the continuous review and improvement of pedagogical, social, cultural, and ethical parameters and indicators; to guarantee the training of professionals committed to social development.
