Local relevancy evaluation in the accreditation bodies for engineering master's programs

Accreditation models in the international context mainly consider the evaluation of learning outcomes and the ability of programs (or higher education institutions) to achieve the educational objectives stated in their mission. However, it is not clear if these objectives and therefore their outcomes satisfy real national and regional needs, a critical point in engineering master's programs, especially in developing countries. The aim of this paper is to study the importance of the local relevancy evaluation of these programs and to analyze the main models of quality assurance and accreditation bodies of USA, Europe and Latin America, in order to ascertain whether the relevancy is evaluated or not. After a literature review, we found that in a free-market economic context and international education, the accreditation of master’s programs follows an international accreditation model, and doesn´t take in account in most cases criteria and indicators for local relevancy. It concludes that it is necessary both, international accreditation to ensure the effectiveness of the program (achievement of learning outcomes) and the national accreditation through which it could ensure local relevancy of programs, for which we are giving some indicators.

Benchmarking, una mirada comparativa de las mejores prácticas de las escuelas de negocios más destacadas del mundo

El mundo económico actual se desarrolla dentro del marco de la globalización, que ha llevado a una mayor internacionalización y competitividad de cada uno de los mercados del mundo. En esta investigación se analizarán las mejores prácticas que poseen las mejores escuelas de administración del mundo. Gran parte de éstas cuentan con al menos una de las tres acreditaciones internacionales más importantes en el ámbito de la administración, las cuales brindan un mayor posicionamiento en el mercado de la educación superior. Por lo tanto, la aplicación de la herramienta Benchmarking brindará un mayor entendimiento de las variables y mejores prácticas que han llevado al éxito en la obtención de éstas acreditaciones por parte de aquellas universidades del mundo, y además permitirá que la Facultad de Administración de la Universidad del Rosario logre comprender sus fortalezas y debilidades y emprenda el camino del mejoramiento continuo en la búsqueda de éstas acreditaciones internacionales y posicionamiento en el mercado.
