The objective of this article is to provide an experience in carrying out the curricular design of the mechanical engineering career, which was supported in the theoretical analysis modality of professional activity, as of the definition of the professional and operationalization model In terms of knowledge, skills, values and attitudes of the main competences that the future graduated from this specialty must have, expressed according to a system of general objectives of the profession. The fundamental result was a mixed curriculum, characterized by the inclusion of the project approach in the preparation of the study plans and programs and the corresponding curricular mesh, which constituted a novel aspect, since, from the first cycles or semesters of training and in those matters that allow it, aspects linked to the project are introduced as a fundamental form of learning assessment, which corresponds to the main competence identified for the mechanical engineer: design, which materializes precisely through technological projects.
