Profile and competences of Spanish industrial engineers in the European Higher Education Area (EHEA)
Abstract: The aim of this
document is to develop a clear definition of the role of the industrial
engineer. This is important in the Spanish context, where the engineer
curricula are evolved in a different way than in other countries, due to the
role developed by the Professional Associations of Engineers and Technical
Engineers. To this end we identify here the professional profiles to be
expected of those graduating from such courses, the sectors where they are most
likely to be recruited, and the context within which industrial engineers are
employed. We deal with meanings and proposals for Industrial Engineers within a
European context, drawing information from the academic debate which has been
launched in a number of scientific publications. The text summarizes our
personal reflections, which are integrated within a proposal for action
intended as an additional contribution to the critical debate as to the situation,
rather than a final response.
