Abstract
The training of professionals in engineering is in an arduous process of transformation and improvement, to respond to the new demands demanded by this century. Given this, ABET's accreditation requirements emphasize the importance of "soft" skills in planning and achieving excellence in engineering education. In addition to technical knowledge, engineers have to experiment and become aware of the importance and impact of lifelong learning. In this paper, we present our experience in the incorporation of ABET's 3i competence: Lifelong Learning, through two courses related to Basic Training Research in the Systems Engineering degree at the Universidad Nacional de San Agustin de Arequipa. Course design and a mapping between the structure of the courses and the lifelong learning component. We hope that the contribution of this work can be replicated in other Engineering programs.
