Methodology for the Management of Social Engagement Projects: A Salesian University Validation

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article

Abstract

The paper examines the effectiveness of project management models for Social Engagement within the university education system, focusing specifically on their responsiveness to external needs. The objective is to propose a methodological framework aimed at enhancing management practices oriented towards social impact. This proposal was validated through a documentary review of projects implemented at Universidad Politécnica Salesiana, employing relational statistics, a Focus Group involving participating faculty, and an Empathy Map based on Design Thinking principles. The findings underscore a positive perception among evaluators, with no significant differences across evaluation years. Additionally, the results highlight the skills developed by faculty, particularly regarding project objectives, indicators, and expected outcomes. Keywords: Project, Society, Teaching Center Management, University.
