Durring the admission cycle of the programs of engineering includes the process of measuring the level of abilities and skills, through learning assessment processes that allow the candidate to generate knowledge and develop skills during these activities. Each assessment process is an observatory that allows students to learn, receive motivation and be evaluated.
The admissions challenge is designed to give applicants an experience that demonstrates the skills and abilities they have in a learning space, accompanied by peers, teachers and a teamwork expert. An expert educator observes the interactions of candidates in the process in order to assess the teamwork ability and grade the motivation and interest for study an engineering program. All these assessments are supported by rubrics in which the high and low level of skills is specified among which applicants can be found.
