The industrial transformation that is required at the national level implies making cultural, organizational, and educational changes, to promote growth and greater value in the automotive sector within the country’s economy. Therefore, it is necessary to develop impact actions within the training of engineers and the updating of professionals who are actively involved in the field or wish to be linked to the sector.
