GRADUATION ATTRIBUTES (GA)
The Graduation Attributes of the Computer Engineering program describe the competencies developed by students throughout their academic training and which distinguish graduates of the program. These attributes serve as a reference for current students, prospective applicants, and stakeholders, as they outline the professional profile the program seeks to foster.
Through these graduation attributes, the program establishes the technical, professional, and ethical capacities that prepare future computer engineers to address technological challenges, participate in collaborative work environments, adapt to innovation, and contribute responsibly to technological, economic, and social development.
- GA1. Applies knowledge from mathematics, natural sciences, computer science, engineering fundamentals, and disciplinary specialization to identify, formulate, and solve complex computer engineering problems.
- GA2. Designs hardware and software engineering solutions that address specific needs, integrating technical principles and considering social, environmental, economic, cultural, and sustainability factors.
- GA3. Conducts appropriate research—including hypothesis formulation, experimental or computational design, data analysis and interpretation, and synthesis of relevant information—to draw valid conclusions in the solution of complex engineering problems.
- GA4. Uses critical thinking to analyze relevant information, evaluate alternatives, and make informed decisions grounded in engineering standards, technical criteria, and ethical, social, and economic considerations.
- GA5. Communicates clearly, effectively, and inclusively in engineering activities through technical reports, project documentation, and oral or written presentations, adapting to diverse audiences and cultural contexts.
- GA6. Acts ethically and professionally in the practice of engineering, recognizing legal and social responsibilities and promoting diversity, inclusion, and sustainability within the workplace.
- GA7. Works effectively as a member or leader of diverse onsite or virtual teams, collaborating to establish goals, plan tasks, make decisions, and achieve objectives in engineering projects.
- GA8. Applies knowledge of computing, networking, cybersecurity, databases, artificial intelligence, and emerging technologies, using modern engineering techniques, tools, and resources to develop innovative and sustainable solutions to complex problems.
- GA9. Recognizes the need for lifelong learning, demonstrating autonomous learning abilities and proactively adapting to technological and contextual changes in engineering practice.
- GA10. Applies principles of project management, resource administration, economic decision-making, and technical leadership to plan, organize, execute, and evaluate engineering projects in multidisciplinary environments.
EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES (EO)
The Educational Objectives of the Computer Engineering program describe the professional achievements expected of graduates approximately five years after completing their studies. These objectives allow students, applicants, and stakeholders to understand the long-term professional impact of the program.
Based on their academic experience and professional practice, graduates are expected to effectively apply acquired knowledge, solve complex engineering problems, work collaboratively, communicate clearly, understand the social and technological impact of their profession, and maintain a commitment to continuous improvement and professional development.
- EO1. Contributes to the development and improvement of technological processes, products, or services in industrial, institutional, or service-oriented environments, performing professionally in areas related to hardware, software, or systems integration.
- EO2. Strengthens their professional profile through certifications, specialized training, or graduate studies in fields related to computer engineering, enabling them to respond to technological and professional challenges.
- EO3. Participates actively in interdisciplinary teams, assuming technical or coordination responsibilities, and demonstrating effective communication, professional commitment, and ethical conduct in workplace environments.
