Profiles
Applicant Profile
- Person with interest in solving regional, national and international problems related to the conception, design, construction and operation of multidisciplinary civil infrastructure projects.
- With skills in mathematics, critical reading and aptitude to acquire knowledge in the use of computational tools, in order to process information to study, analyze, design, execute and maintain infrastructure works of different types.
- With good analytical, investigative, creative and innovative capacity; as driving forces for the generation of knowledge due to the need to understand specific topics.
- With logic and abstract reasoning capacity, because the phenomena in reality happen in spaces with three dimensions and the models that describe them also behave this way, so it is necessary to have the ability to visualize the effects on volumes and not on planes.
- Social responsibility, willingness to work in a team and verbal communication skills based on the concept of sustainable development and given the social nature of the profession, integrity, ethics and collective conscience are fundamental qualities for the applicant.
