The curricular plan considers, in addition to the subjects of the scientifical and technological area, Humanities, Management and Innovation courses, which result in an holistic training that further improves the professional value of our graduates. Innovation is and entrepreneurship are encouraged on the campus through events courses, extracurricular organizations and presentations at UTEC which include Demo Days, Company Talks, different workshops, etcspaces where students become empowered to enhance their ideas.</span></span>

<h4> <strong> I&E Courses </strong> </h4><span style="font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif"><span style="fontbackground-color: transparent; white-sizespace: small"><span style="pre-wrap; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: small">In another hand, we have Some of the UTEC Ventures acceleratorcourses offered are "Innovation and Product Development", in which holds events students explore the design thinking methodology and other techniques to apply in order to promote I&Ethe development of a real product. Three classes focus on business management and entrepreneurship: "Company and Customer", like Global Startup Labs, GIST Startup Bootcamp, Peru Design Week"Business Management", and the 1776 Challenge Cup‘Products and Services Design’. As wellFinally, UTEC has design courses, like Innovation International Program there is a course called "Entrepreneurs in Action" where students work on identifying needs and improvement opportunities and Innovation Through Design, which are focused implementing solutions in professional specializationa real business. </span></span>

Students use spaces like Fablab<span style="font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif"><span style="background-color: transparent; white-space: pre-wrap; color: rgb(0, 0, UTEC garage or the Product Design Laboratory to develop their projects. 0); font-size: small">Some of them courses don’t have developed collaborative projects with MIT, Harvard and Colorado School a specific component of Mines. On the other hand, something was born in 2016: Comunidad I&E UTECbecause they are related to core areas, whose main mission but students are required to go through an innovative process to develop a solution. The course ‘Biodesign’ is from the mandatory bioengineering curriculum. It is to improve about the I&E ecosystem use of design in order to create a solution to a specific problem following the region, starting steps of Design Thinking with UTEC biomedicine or biotechnology. Another course called ‘Information Systems’ gives studentsof Computer Science the opportunity to discover a specific problem that requires technology to be solved. This idea was born from For that, it is necessary to empathize with the initiative of objective public in order to design the first 4 peruvian University Innovation Fellowsbest software that fits them.</span></span>

Nowadays<span style="font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif"><span style="background-color: transparent; white-space: pre-wrap; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: small">On 2014, UTEC launched its executive education program, which is an educational proposal of professional specialization whose core axes are innovation, data, agility, and technology. Among its 7 schools, the ways students can learn about I&E around "Academy of Innovation and Omniquality" stands up. It offers the campus has grown that we have a Student Club called courses "Specialization on User Experience and Service Design"Revista Piso 11and " where news are shared so students can get to know what is going Specializatión onStartUp Creation" which put in action the I&E theory into real business cases.</span></span><br /><h4> <strong> Extracurricular Clubs & Activities</strong> </h4>

It is important for the students to feel inspired by their school faculty so they might follow in their footsteps. The two main ways our university has done this is by implementing faculty-led projects seek that students design and propose solutions research centers on different topics relevant to them. </span></span> <h4> <strong> Interdisciplinary Projects </strong> </h4> <span style="font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif"><span style="font-size: small"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)">Faculty are supported to real problemsbe entrepreneurial or commercialize their research by programs such as the Interdisciplinary Project core course.

In additionThese projects need to be developed following design thinking, user-centered design, at and research methodologies. At the end of the semester , there is an exhibition fair a contest for all the students enrolled in which the course to demonstrate the creative process and the progress as teamwork that is the final result of their project. Finally, there is a contest, called Demo Day UTEC, where the most outstanding projects earn funds to be continuedcarried on and enter the market. <h4> <strong> Research Centres as a catalyst </strong> </h4> <span style="font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif"><span style="font-size: small"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)">There is a high quantity of teachers at UTEC that are also researchers from any of the six research centres of the university.
