Abstract
The importance of knowing the viewpoints of engineering graduates from the University of Science and Humanities (UCH), located in Lima, Peru, is crucial to make continuous improvements in the curricula of its two programs, electronic and systems engineering. Hence, in this study, a survey was carried out to find out the perspectives about the content learned in their classes as well as the characteristics and the quality of the methodology followed in them. In addition to this, they were asked about the quality of the administrative services at the university. The results of our study show a general contentment as to how the programs are being currently handled. However, there are some details that need to be corrected in order to reach an optimal point in which future graduates are completely satisfied with both engineering programs.
