This article shows a qualitative analysis of the effectiveness of the use of TRIZ, a systematic creativity strategy, as a tool to support the creative competence within the Semester Project in the curriculum of Electronic Engineering. The analysis is based on an experience carried out with second year students from the Javeriana University in Cali, Colombia. The Semester Project is a pedagogical activity seeking to boost different student competences. The project is based on the formulation of a problem that must be solved by using more than one curriculum course currently taken by the students. The project is evaluated by a set of professors throughout the semester. The results obtained show that the proposal of ideas using TRIZ is higher compared to those generated by trial and error without any creativity technique. TRIZ's potential for engineering work is corroborated because it uses the accrued knowledge of designers over the years helping new generations attain this knowledge. It addresses, from the curriculum, the formation of professionals with abilities to face the new oriented to project enterprises.
