Abstract
Commonly a previous step towards to the accreditation of an engineering program turns out to be the self-evaluation where the program carry out schemes of observation to all edges and corners of the program [1][2]. An interesting angle of a program is in the territory of research and development where students in the last year of the program acquire capabilities to apply pure knowledge of engineering to face and solve a tangible problem. In this paper we study the different aspects of selfevaluation towards to the acquisition of the accreditation having as example the programs of electrical, networking and system engineering in young private Peruvian universities. Essentially in this paper we present a scheme of self-evaluation focused on the research activities of the so-called capstone-project which would reflect to some extent the capabilities and level or degree of efficiency of students near to complete their bachelor program. We focus in concrete in the effects of implementing research activities as part of the capstone project that would enclose individual achievements and that seen from the self-evaluation perspective would constitute a valid methodology towards to the accreditation of the program.
