Resumen
This paper introduces the ongoing Educational Innovation Project (EIP) that is being carried out at the Faculty of Engineering of Vitoria-Gasteiz (Basque Country University, UPV/EHU, Spain). The proposed project consists in the inclusion of gender perspective in several core subjects of the 3rd course of the Degree in Mechanical Engineering. For this purpose, each subjects’ competences are classified based on the provision and care nature in order to analyse and classify the transversal competences and the teaching-learning methodology of each subject. Moreover, visibility is given to women who have contributed to the development of theoretical concepts or practical methods related to the subjects involved in this study. Finally, mixed working groups are created to reinforce the value of diversity of viewpoints and ways of working and the influence that different aspects that are studied can have in people are incorporated in the subjects.
