Esta investigación aborda el problema de la percepción que los estudiantes de ingeniería civil tienen de la profesión al momento de concluir sus estudios. La metodología utilizada se basa en un enfoque cualitativo y exploratorio sobre lo que ellos consideran sus debilidades de egreso de la universidad.

Como complemento, también se exploró la opinión de los estudiantes respecto a sus debilidades de ingreso a la universidad, y a los contenidos del currículo que consideraron de poca utilidad y de alta dificultad.
