At FICT, the quality of teaching is no accident. It is constantly designed, reviewed, and improved as part of a process of continuous improvement and curriculum reform aimed at meeting the current demands of engineering education.
Faculty members from the Geotechnical Engineering track of the Civil Engineering program met to review and strengthen the content of their courses, in a technical and strategic exercise focused on a fundamental goal: training better engineers for an increasingly demanding environment.
During the session, key subjects within the curriculum were analyzed, such as Soil and Rock Mechanics, Surveying, Pavement Design, and Foundation Engineering, whose content ranges from soil characterization to slope stabilization and the design of safe and efficient foundation solutions.
The work was not limited to reviewing topics. It focused on aligning learning outcomes with macro-competencies, improving academic writing, and proposing adjustments that meet the needs of civil engineers today—and tomorrow.
This involves rethinking how we teach:
from understanding soil behavior and its application on-site
to decision-making based on technical, regulatory, and performance criteria
Because behind every class lies a rigorous process that isn’t always visible, but that makes all the difference.
This workspace reflects FICT’s commitment to teaching that evolves, questions itself, and looks to the future.
Training engineers isn’t about repeating content.
It’s about anticipating the future.
It’s Living Engineering.
