In 2013, the National Accreditation Council guideline for undergraduate programs introduced several new aspects to be evaluated related to pertinence and impact studies of undergraduate programs. Given the growing culture of continuous improvement, self-evaluation and accreditation that is being developed in the Higher Education Institutions of the country, there is a need to respond to these new guidelines. This article proposes a methodology to aboard the pertinence and impact studies for undergraduate programs in Engineering. The proposed methodology includes three stages: definition of type of study, delimitation of incidence region and the methodological development. Although the proposed methodology was born from the needs of undergraduate programs in a Faculty of Engineering, this article describes a flexible methodology that can be adapted to undergraduate and postgraduate programs of different areas of knowledge.Downloads
