TAILIEUCHUNG - Help to new students of ICT systems engineering degree at EPSEM-UPC: Mentoring

Mentoring gives academic, teaching and self-organizatonal support. It improves academic results and reduces the percentage deserton of the studies. The mentor is usually an experimented student who is studying his last year’s Degree. | Journal of Technology and Science Education HELP TO NEW STUDENTS OF ICT SYSTEMS ENGINEERING DEGREE AT EPSEM-UPC: MENTORING Roser Gorchs1, Xavier Molinero2 1 Departament d’Enginyeria Minera i Recursos Naturals 2 Departament de Matemàtca Aplicada 3 Escola Politècnica Superior d'Enginyeria de Manresa (EPSEM) Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) Spain roser@, Received November 2013 Accepted May 2014 Abstract Freshmen at the Manresa School of Engineering, Escola Politècnica Superior d'Enginyeria de Manresa (EPSEM), of the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) are voluntarily provided with the mentoring service during their inital period at University. Mentoring gives academic, teaching and self-organizatonal support. It improves academic results and reduces the percentage deserton of the studies. The mentor is usually an experimented student who is studying his last year’s Degree. The goal of the present work is to expose how mentoring is performanced in ICT (Informaton, Communicaton and Technology) Systems Engineering Degree at EPSEM. These studies have been recently created and they are unique in Spain (according to our knowledge). We present here a treatment and analysis of the performance and possible actons that have taking in account in order to contnuous improvement. We have analyzed the methodology and the opinion of the Degree’s students during two academic years (2010-2011 and 2011-2012) in which mentoring was possible thanks to a Grant from EnginyCat AGAUR (Agency for Administraton of University and Research Grants of “Generalitat de Catalunya”) and the UPC. Then, this Grant was unfortunately cancelled and mentoring could not go on. Thats’s why mentoring has been just applied few academic years, what is not enough to develop an exhaustve statstcal analysis. However, we think that results are very interestng and we aim to carry on with this actvity as son as possible in order to develop more .
