Engineering education stands at a turning point. Global uncertainty, accelerated digitalization, the emergence of artificial intelligence, and the deepening of social and environmental challenges demand a rethinking not only of training content but also of its purposes, methods and responsibilities.<\/p>\n
This symposium proposes a space for critical reflection, interdisciplinary dialogue, and collective construction aimed at answering a central question: what kind of engineers do we need to train for the next decade, and what role should engineering play in building fairer, more sustainable and resilient societies?<\/p>\n
The gathering will be organized around four thematic axes: 1) Ethics and social responsibility, to promote training committed to collective well-being, equity, and service to communities; 2) Artificial intelligence and the new role of the teacher, aimed at analyzing how emerging technologies transform teaching-learning processes, research, and professional practice; 3) Twenty-first-century skills, with emphasis on critical thinking, effective communication, emotional intelligence, creativity, and collaborative leadership; 4) Sustainability and glocal thinking, integrating environmental, social, cultural and territorial dimensions as central criteria in engineering decision-making.<\/p>\n
Through keynote lectures, panel discussions and participatory workshops, the symposium will seek to generate concrete proposals for renewing engineering education from a Latin American, intercultural and global perspective. As a result, the collective construction of a roadmap for the 2026-2036 decade is envisioned, as well as the formation of an international network of academic, professional and institutional collaboration to continue the work begun.
\nMore than a space for exchange, this symposium aspires to become a platform for imagining, debating and guiding the engineering that our time demands: an engineering that is technically rigorous, socially responsible, and deeply committed to the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","simposio_area":[53],"class_list":["post-10525","simposio","type-simposio","status-publish","hentry","simposio_area-educacion"],"yoast_head":"\n
