Abstract
In Peru, to employ international researchers with postgraduate studies in universities is an effort that few of these institutions can make. The resources that are required by higher education institutions for this purpose can be quite expensive. This article shows the strategies taken in a university of Lima city to include professionals with research experience abroad that can add to the development of the research skills of the local teachers from the engineering faculty and its students, thus, also bringing an improvement needed for obtaining their Bachelor Degrees. The results of these processes have been very important, there have been improvements in academic works (placed in the repository of the university), the incorporation of students of the last cycles in research projects running with competitive grants as well as their participation in international congresses; thus, improving their employability. All this has allowed the improvement in the performance of the graduation profile and has also strengthened the growth of the quality of the university (licensing of new careers and better positioning in the Scimago ranking).
