GONZALEZ-DIAZ, Yudith; SENU-GONZALEZ, Idalberto  and  CAMBARA-GONZALEZ, David. Impact evaluation system of a PhD program in Chemical Engineering. RTQ [online]. 2023, vol.43, n.3, pp. 437-452.  Epub Oct 30, 2023. ISSN 2224-6185.

The evaluation of the impact of training is an aspect of great importance not only for the organizations that receive the training, but also for the institutions that provide it, as a way of evaluating the quality of the training process. The objective of this work is to develop an impact assessment system for the Doctoral Program in Chemical Engineering at the Universidad de Oriente, which contributes to the continuous improvement of its quality. Theoretical level methods were used: historical-logical, systemic and modeling. For the implementation of the system, the application of techniques is proposed, such as surveys and interviews with doctoral students, graduates, faculty, employers and managers of the area to which the Doctoral Program belongs. The proposed system is made up of six components, which together will contribute to the continuous improvement of the quality of the Program in question. The dimensions for the evaluation of the impact of the Doctoral Program in Chemical Engineering of the Universidad de Oriente are: impact of individual growth that includes doctoral students and faculty, impact on the organizational growth of the Doctoral Program and the University, and socioeconomic impact that includes: country, sector/branch and business focus.

Keywords : evaluation; evaluation of impact; impact; system, Ph.D.
