Abstract

In 2020, the Conference of Chemical Engineering Directors and Deans (CODDIQ) proposed the creation of an observatory to monitor chemical engineering degrees in Spain. This representative radiography of Chemical Engineering studies offers an initial point to observe the future changes when Royal Decree 822/2021 and proposed challenges in the last Ministerial Conference on the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) will be implanted. The survey data from CODDIQ partners allow us to know important data such as (i) the 24 international quality accreditations at Spanish universities, (ii) the high demand and the required marks, an average of 7.25, for the Chemical Engineering Bachelor’s degree, (iii) 9560 undergraduate students in this degree in Spain and their gender profile which is around 43% of women, similar than women lectures, (iv) the difficulty of this Bachelor’s degree through some indicators like duration of studies (5.25 years), graduation rate (41%) and drop-out rate (26%), (v) the employability after obtaining the Bachelor's degree is very high (>70%). In addition, Chemical engineering undergraduate and graduate students indicate their expectations are covered. In this paper, some consequences of the pandemic on students' performance (lower than before COVID-19) are analyzed, despite lectures tried to innovate in their classes and the university provided adequate tools for online teaching.

化工学位课程现状综述
2020年,化学工程主任和院长会议(CODDIQ)提议建立一个观测站,以监测西班牙的化学工程学位。这张具有代表性的化学工程研究射线图提供了一个观察未来变化的起点,当皇家法令822/2021和上一届欧洲高等教育区(EHEA)部长级会议提出的挑战将被植入。CODDIQ合作伙伴的调查数据使我们能够了解重要的数据,例如(i)西班牙大学的24个国际质量认证,(ii)化学工程学士学位的高要求和要求分数,平均为7.25分,(iii)西班牙9560名本科学生在这个学位上,他们的性别特征约为43%的女性,与女性讲座相似。(四)学时(5.25年)、毕业率(41%)、辍学率(26%)等指标表明该学士学位的难度较大;(五)获得学士学位后的就业能力非常高(70%)。此外,化学工程本科生和研究生表示他们的期望被涵盖。本文分析了疫情对学生成绩的一些影响(低于新冠肺炎之前),尽管讲师试图在课堂上进行创新,大学也为在线教学提供了足够的工具。

期刊介绍: Education for Chemical Engineers was launched in 2006 with a remit to publisheducation research papers, resource reviews and teaching and learning notes. ECE is targeted at chemical engineering academics and educators, discussing the ongoingchanges and development in chemical engineering education. This international title publishes papers from around the world, creating a global network of chemical engineering academics. Papers demonstrating how educational research results can be applied to chemical engineering education are particularly welcome, as are the accounts of research work that brings new perspectives to established principles, highlighting unsolved problems or indicating direction for future research relevant to chemical engineering education. Core topic areas: -Assessment- Accreditation- Curriculum development and transformation- Design- Diversity- Distance education-- E-learning Entrepreneurship programs- Industry-academic linkages- Benchmarking- Lifelong learning- Multidisciplinary programs- Outreach from kindergarten to high school programs- Student recruitment and retention and transition programs- New technology- Problem-based learning- Social responsibility and professionalism- Teamwork- Web-based learning
