Abstract

The objective of this research project was to design a proposal for a strategic plan for the Information Technology career of the Escuela Superior Politécnica de Chimborazo, Morona Santiago, period 2023-2026, in order to guarantee better administrative management through the fulfillment of the proposed objectives. The modality of the research development is qualitative and quantitative, using the application of surveys to both external and internal actors as methodology. The information obtained was used to determine the current situation of the career, creating a SWOT analysis. According to the three surveys conducted at the level of teaching, research, liaison, and administrative management, the level of satisfaction was found to be excellent and good in terms of the performance of academic activities. However, some aspects related to infrastructure and socialization of research and outreach projects should be improved. At the superficial level, it was evident that many employers are not aware of the existence of the IT career at ESPOCH Morona Santiago. There is a need to hire Information Technology Engineers in the labor field. The subjects and values inculcated are in line with the requirements of society. Based on the findings, the strategic plan proposal is made, which consists of the mission, vision, strategic objectives, programs, projects, activities, goals, and indicators for the substantive functions of the institution (teaching, research, outreach, and administrative management), in order to establish a multi-year program that serves as a guide and instrument for measuring compliance with the proposed activities. The proposal was elaborated based on the needs and problems encountered, which, through its correct execution, will contribute to the continuous improvement of the Information Technology career
