The quality of our education is accredited by national and international organizations.
This accreditation ratifies the quality of the engineering programs at Universidad Icesi and certifies that they have implemented an effective and sustainable measurement process and quality improvement, and also, that they have faculty of the highest level in their academic departments and educate students in fundamentals of mathematics and science, in advanced engineering topics and in the so-called soft skills such as oral and written communication and teamwork, following the best practices of engineering education and taking into account for the design of their curriculums the trends of the increasingly dynamic industry.
Why is this accreditation important for systems engineers?
National accreditation of the program
Since 2002, the Program has been accredited by the high quality accreditation council (CNA) of the Ministry of National Education. This accreditation was obtained through a voluntary process that includes verification and review by academic peers and indicates that a university program meets the quality standards established by the Ministry of National Education. This accreditation is also renewed periodically.
National accreditation of the Institution
High-Quality Institutional Accreditation of the whole institution is a recognition of Icesi's permanent commitment for maintaining high quality standards in its training, research and social extension. In December 2021 the Ministry of National Education renewed this distinction for 8 years.
Studying Sofware Systems Engineering at Icesi goes beyond simply learning a set of technologies that will soon be obsolete, or receiving knowledge that you do not know how to apply in the real world. Icesi allows you to learn through projects with companies and real users to keep you up with the changing technology industry. As a icesi Software systems engineer you can make a difference in every project you lead, you can empower yourself and your team members, and can reinvent yourself whenever necessary.
Within the first years of graduation, graduates of the Software Systems Engineering program of Universidad Icesi will be able to:
These outcomes cover the knowledge, skills and abilities required for our students to attain the program’s PEOs within a few years after graduation. We adjusted the writing of some outcomes to make them closer to the computing and software engineering discipline. However, all of them maintain a direct correspondence with the outcomes defined by ABET.
Each of SOs for the SSE program is defined as an ability to:
Starting with the next 2023-1 measurement cycle, in addition to the seven student outcomes that are compliant with ABET requeriments, the program defines outcomes eight and nine that cover disciplinary competencies not covered by outcomes 1 to 7.
Icesi’s Software Systems Engineers are recognized for being very professional, autonomous, innovators, flexible, critical thinkers, ethical and committed to the welfare of society. For this, the program is committed to a continuous improvement process that seeks to ensure that students develop, among others, the outcomes proposed by ABET These outcomes cover the knowledge, skills and abilities required for our graduates to attain the program’s educational objectives, and are listed as follows:
