(1281) THE PROBLEM OF COORDINATION IN ENGINEERING DEGREES: THE CASE OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND COMMUNICATIONS ENGINEERING

摘要

The implementation of the so-called “Bologna process” on the Spanish University has required a huge effort from all the stakeholders involved: lecturers, students, academic organization bodies, etc. After this complex process of reorganization, some issues might have gone unnoticed, perhaps because the guidelines of the courses do not detail the contents in depth or maybe because of deviations during the implementation of these guidelines. At the same time, in order to successfully complete this process, proper planning and coordination is essential both at a horizontal level, among lecturers and professors teaching the same course, and at a vertical level, among the lecturers and professors at the same department. In this paper, we introduce a methodology that is used for monitoring and evaluating the correct coordination and execution of the teaching guidelines and the proper development of the syllabus. Our methodology has been proven in specific degrees such as Computer Science and Communication Engineering. The results suggest that student found difficulties with Mathematics, which should be updated and reorganized more efficiently because presents topics with duplicities/overlapping and synchronization problems.
