“…and improving the capacity and skills of human capital, taking advantage of the competitive advantages of their territories, and the synergy of medium and small businesses, as well as continuing to promote innovation and entrepreneurship, among others. This situation has been reported by other countries such as Colombia in the work carried out by Mendoza-Mendoza [7]. Likewise, in the short term, it is necessary to overcome the economic crisis in which the country finds itself and incorporate those sectors that have been marginalized from the "successes" in terms of growth and economic development of recent decades.…”

In recent years, the industry has been forced to adapt to the dynamism of today's world and complex problems, where there is a demand for personalized products. In this sense, innovative engineers capable of facing these new challenges are required. Due to this, engineering training itineraries must be up to date with the new times. The Industrial Civil Engineering (ICI) program at UC Temuco, in its need to adapt to the global context, has decided to update the training itinerary based on a bibliographic review on the new approach to the program and surveys of different key actors. The results showed that the old ICI program must present more electives that allow the insertion of topics such as data science, simulation and sustainability. Furthermore, it was observed that the duration of the degree did not contribute to internal performance indicators of the university. The new training itinerary covers 11 semesters, 300 SCT credits, with 5 specific and 5 generic competencies. This new itinerary aims to respond to the challenges posed and improve the performance indicators of the graduate.

“…Regarding study programs or course satisfaction applications, Fuentes et al (2016) composed a three-stage DEA model to assess teaching efficiency in higher education to optimize the quality of the teaching process. Mendoza-Mendoza et al (2023) used a DEA model to evaluate industrial engineering programs offered at Colombian higher education institutions.…”

Education has been considered a cornerstone for human and economic development. Although there is a national educational strategy in most countries, various implementations are at the state level. This paper studies academic efficiency at the primary and secondary levels and the human development dimensions –long and healthy life, being knowledgeable, and enjoying a decent standard of life– at the state level. For this purpose, a network data envelopment analysis (NDEA) with two stages was proposed. The first stage studies the educational process efficiency, while the second evaluates its impact in the form of the human development index. The study found significant differences between the evaluated states in the education stage, where the lowest efficiencies are mainly in the southwest of Mexico. The results also indicate that better education quality leads to greater regional, economic, and social development at the state level. This study contributes to the NDEA applications on the understanding of the impact that education has in improving the development of the regions holistically.
