Abstract

The Master Program in Mechanical Engineering from the Autonomous University of the Caribbean (AUC) to two years to start academic activities faces his first curricula modification driven by the need to respond to the context problems that formed the curriculum redesign of the Mechanical engineering Program last year. This process denotes the joint curricular (core problems, competencies, cross-cutting) between different levels (undergraduate studies) which

will result in a coherent and contextualized document that contributing to boost the academy

from its different sides. The current plan of the master study taxed only one of the cores (Energy),

is to then give participation to another emphasis of the program, the related with materials. The curriculum committee of the Mechanical Engineering Program has drawn a roadmap which

aims to present later this year the document to the Ministry of Education to support the aspiration of developing this new emphasis.
