"The Faculty of Science and Technology (FCT) started in 2014 a restructuring process of the research area, reviewing and interrelated the academic spaces that included the research modules to unify their denomination in all the undergraduate programs of the Faculty; likewise, to unify the contents, the number of credits and their orientation; This is because the chairs with the research component were transversal to all the programs; therefore, the union of the mentioned elements was proposed, giving rise to a common line and academic space that would facilitate speaking a general conceptual language at the level of Formative Research in the Faculty, taking advantage of the fact that at that date formative research activities were developed.From the above, the interest arose to collect and analyze how the research process was be- ing carried out in the academic programs of the FCT; as well as knowing the impact of the research proposals that had been carried out; its contribution to the human and integral for- mation of the students; its coherence with the fields of study of academic programs in the period 2005 and 2014 and thus know the evo- lution of research in the Faculty of Science and Technology during this period."
