Translation: Timely graduation is an indicator that all higher education institutions in Chile aspire to improve, for reasons of social and financial responsibility. In this presentation, I will give an account of my experience and opinions about the actions that can generate improvements in the indicator with greater or lesser impact on the learning and contributions of future professionals, with some examples in the case of engineering and the civil computer engineering career of the Universidad de Concepción in particular.
