engineering sciences, so that he can make use of it when facing future
challenges in his professional life; And, the only way that an engineering

technological advances.
Engineering Science is a profession that comprises the application of many
different scientific principles and the associated mathematics that underlie
engineering. It integrates engineering, biological, chemical, mathematical and
physical sciences with the arts, humanities, social sciences, and professions to
meet the most demanding challenges and promote the well-being of global
society.

The Engineering and Society (IS) subject is located in the first year of the

University and is part of the training aspects related to Social Sciences and
Humanities, considered essential to achieve training integral. Modern world,

a massive demand.
