Abstract

The purpose of this research work is to design an Strategic Plan for the Software Engineering career, of the Faculty of Computer Science and Electronics, of the Escuela Superior Politécnica de Chimborazo, 2018-2022 period. Through this tool, strategies will be generated that will allow an efficient administrative management for the career. For the design of the strategic plan, information related to the career was collected, research instruments and techniques were applied, such as an interview with the director, who provided information that facilitated the execution of SWOT analysis, matrix of internal and external factors evaluation and identification.
