description |
Entrepreneurship is a vector that helps economic growth, social scaling, and job generation. However, the soft skills required for engineering entrepreneurship are unclear. This research aims to determine which of these skills are highly demanded as a reference to improve competitiveness among engineers and undergraduate programs. A survey was designed and applied to graduated mechanical engineers from the University of Pamplona. The instrument with excellent validity and reliability, according to Cronbach’s Alpha, included 4 different dimensions evaluating 10 soft skills with 18 indicators. The statistical tools used were the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, median, mode, Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA, and the Games-Howell post hoc test. All soft skills investigated are required to start an engineering venture at a high development level. Likewise, the surveyed engineers demonstrated a high level of development of these skills in such a way that the gap between those required to start an engineering entrepreneurial venture and those developed is minor. In addition, the most effective way to increase its development is training in administrative areas or personal development. Likewise, there is a small gap between the skills developed by the respondents and those required in a venture, and the way to overcome this gap is training in administrative areas or personal development. Engineers dedicated to teaching, or working in public institutions, have less developed three of the six entrepreneurship indicators. Finally, the gap between soft skills developed in undergraduate programs and those required in entrepreneurship is significant. Engineering programs must include experiential training in soft skills and entrepreneurship in their curriculum. |

Sin embargo, no es claro cuáles son las habilidades blandas requeridas para iniciar un emprendimiento en ingeniería. Esta investigación tiene como propósito determinar cuáles son esas habilidades como referencia para mejorar la competitividad en los ingenieros como en los programas de pregrado. Para alcanzar este objetivo, se diseñó y aplicó una encuesta a ingenieros mecánicos egresados de la Universidad de Pamplona. El instrumento con validez y confiabilidad excelente según Alfa de Cronbach, costaba de 4 dimensiones diferentes que valoraban 10 habilidades blandas con 18 indicadores. Las herramientas estadísticas usadas fueron la prueba bilateral de Kolmogórov-Smirnov, mediana, moda, Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA y post hoc de Games-Howell. Se encontró que todas las habilidades blandas investigadas son requeridas en un nivel alto de desarrollo para realizar un emprendimiento en ingeniería. Así mismo, que los ingenieros encuestados demuestran un nivel alto de desarrollo de estas habilidades, de tal forma que la brecha entre aquellas requeridas para realizar un emprendimiento en ingeniería y las desarrolladas, es pequeña, además, se evidencio que la forma más efectiva para incrementar su desarrollo es realizar entrenamientos en áreas administrativas o desarrollo personal. Se encontró también que los ingenieros dedicados a la docencia, o que trabajan en instituciones públicas, tienen menos desarrollado tres de los seis indicadores de emprendimiento. Finalmente se evidenció que la brecha entre las habilidades formadas en el pregrado y las requeridas en el emprendimiento son grandes, y los programas deben incluir en su currículo formaciones vivenciales de habilidades blandas y emprendimiento.application/pdftext/xmlengengUniversidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombiahttps://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/ingenieria/article/view/14167/11595https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/ingenieria/article/view/14167/11681Copyright (c) 2022 Yenny-Carolina Jaimes-Acero, Adriana Granados-Comba, Rafael Bolivar-Leónhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf242http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Revista Facultad de Ingeniería; Vol. 31 No. 59 (2022): January-March 2022 (Continuous Publication); e14167Revista Facultad de Ingeniería; Vol. 31 Núm. 59 (2022): Enero-Marzo 2022 (Publicación Continua); e141672357-53280121-1129Soft Skills for entrepreneurshipEntrepreneurship in engineeringSoft Skills in engineeringHabilidades blandas para emprendimientoemprendimiento en ingenieríahabilidades blandas en ingenieríaSoft Skills Requirements for Engineering EntrepreneurshipHabilidades blandas para el emprendimiento en Ingenieríainfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a325http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Jaimes-Acero, Yenny-CarolinaGranados-Comba, AdrianaBolívar-León, Rafael 001/14337oai:repositorio.uptc.edu.co:001/143372025-07-18 11:53:44.162metadata.onlyhttps://repositorio.uptc.edu.coRepositorio Institucional UPTCrepositorio.uptc@uptc.edu.co |
