Resumen
Engineering is evolving very fast, and we must prepare our students to not become obsolete when still in their youth. Without a steady improvement in quality the teaching levels in our universities’ will decline due to the more complex context of today’s universities. Unfortunately, professors who work hard to improve and innovate in engineering education find their work to be unappreciated by their colleagues and superiors.
Engineering education is considered as something that overenthusiastic professors do ‘on the side’ and instead of ‘real’ research. In this paper we analyze the professional associations related with engineering education, as well as the conferences, symposia and journals on the field, and show that by the typical measurable standards, Engineering Education is at the same level as any other technical engineering field.
