- Masterly conferences and pairs dialogues on innovation in engineering viewed as a change for competitiveness and development.
- Papers on engineering education, oral presentations of teachers or students of the faculties, schools and engineering programs and stakeholders on the themes proposed:
- Process teaching – learning
- curriculum development
- Evaluation of classroom teaching
- Quality and accreditation
- Advances in research developed by universities or companies in which experiences and prospects are shown around the proposed topics: Energy, Materials, Water and Information Technology, on the basis of innovative processes that contribute to change.
- Engineering student forum in which, from his own experience, they provide elements for innovation.
- Engineering deans meeting to reflect on the impact of the administration in the innovation process.
These five opportunities to participate will EIEI ACOFI of 2016, an event of great importance to engineering education.
Papers on engineering education
As has been translated, the EIEI ACOFI 2016, will present the experiences of teachers and students through innovative classroom experiences in the fields of the themes proposed.
Themes
- Process teaching – learning
- curriculum development
- Evaluation of classroom teaching
- Quality and accreditation
Methodology
Entries will be exhibited only in oral form, at specified times. According to the corresponding thematic axis papers will be organized into groups of 4 and will be exposed during the parallel sessions concluded with a discussion among the exhibitors within the time available.
The best papers selected by the evaluators, are the winners of the 2016 Awards ACOFI.
Directed to
- Administrators, teachers, students and administrative staff of the faculties, schools or engineering programs.
- Research groups, work or extension faculties, schools or engineering programs.
- Business representatives and government who have developed papers related to themes.
How to send your abstract
- Prepare your abstract (maximum length is 500 words)
- After February 1, 2016, access the website acofipapers.org
- Register in the system if not yet have access to it
- Copy and paste the text of the abstract in the appropriate box (no need to attach any document / file at this stage)
- It is very important that all authors of the paper remain enrolled in this first stage, the system gives the option to add as many authors as needed
* It is recommended that this process is performed by the main author of the paper, as the initiator of the process is the only contact between ACOFI and paper to present.

Advances in research
In the context of EIEI ACOFI 2016, will be addressed the following topics of interest in engineering, which will reflect and expose experiences of the university and the company, proposals from innovation.
- Energy
- Materials
- Water
- Information technology
Methodology
Each topic will be discussed in the following way:
Tuesday, October 4, 2016. Each topic will have a workshop where research experiences to be approved by the organizing committee and a discussion on the proposed topic and experiences presented it will take place will be socialized. This socialization is done orally.
Wednesday, October 5 and Thursday 6 October. According to the final agenda, two topics will hold a panel per day, which will reflect the participation of experts from academia and business.
Participation criteria
Every research should send email eiei@acofi.edu.co a report of a maximum of five (5) pages in accordance with the proposed topic, in Microsoft Word format, which contains the factors deemed relevant, on research proposal. Should specify the topic to which it belongs, mentioning that category of research is to include the names and institutions of all the people who are part of the investigation.
Selected papers will be presented at the Workshop on 4 October and will also be presented as a poster at the Convention Center.
The evaluation criteria are as follows:
- Correspond to an investigation
- Consistency with one of the proposed topics
- Having an innovation component
- Having relevant content
- Implementation capacity, planning, and scope
The selected papers are required to design a poster to be met coherence parameters, feasibility and possibility of implementation, plus a preestablished specifications that will be announced in due course. The posters will be presented during the 5th, 6th and 7th October.
This proposal is oriented for better interaction and have practical elements for workshops and panels.
Directed to
- Administrators, teachers, students and administrative staff in schools, engineering schools or programs that are part of research in each of the topics.
- Research groups of faculties, schools or engineering programs.
- Business representatives and government who are conducting research related to the proposed topics.
