Teaching technological tools for electrical engineering students toward professional routine

Abstract

This work aims to define and demonstrate the importance of technological tools in the teaching of subjects in the Electrical Engineering graduate course at various levels of their undergraduate studies. A parallel between the theoretical contents and their practical applications will be done taking into account a curricular grid of the mentioned course, since some of the assignments of the engineer is to have skills and abilities to apply mathematical, scientific, technological and instrumental knowledge to the engineering. In the text we will be addressing 2 tools that have various professional and didactic applications in the field of electrical engineering: MATLAB, and MPLAB, as well as the importance of teaching these tools and the benefits acquired by the student when entering the increasingly competitive labor market of this country which is increasing exponentially. In addition, a survey was conducted to evaluate the students' opinions on the subjects of this work.
