Pertinencia del diseño curricular de los programas de posgrado en producción industrial frente a los desafíos de innovación, sostenibilidad y transformación productiva en Ecuador Relevance of the curricular design of postgraduate programs in industrial production in the face of the challenges of innovation, sustainability and productive transformation in Ecuador
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
El estudio aborda la limitada evidencia científica sobre la correspondencia entre la formación avanzada orientada al sector productivo y las demandas contemporáneas asociadas con la transición verde, la innovación tecnológica y la articulación universidad-industria. El objetivo fue analizar la pertinencia de los programas académicos vinculados con el campo industrial frente a los desafíos actuales del desarrollo sostenible y la competitividad. Se aplicó una metodología bibliométrica-documental, basada en la revisión de fuentes verificadas publicadas entre 2021 y 2025, el análisis de coocurrencia de palabras clave y la construcción de clústeres temáticos. Los resultados evidenciaron una alta concentración de estudios sobre sostenibilidad, educación superior y ODS; sin embargo, se identificó una baja presencia de investigaciones relacionadas con producción industrial, vínculo universidad-industria y transformación productiva. Se concluye que existe una brecha curricular que exige fortalecer competencias aplicadas, capacidades verdes y procesos formativos más conectados con las necesidades reales del entorno laboral
