AB  - In  this  paper  we  discuss  common  problems  in  Colombian  universities  in  regard  to  engineering
professional programs. We also discuss the reasons to implement a curriculum reform following the  CDIO  model at  Icesi  University, and present  some  preliminary  results  of  implementing  this reform, mainly concerning student motivation and attrition reduction
The  adoption  of  CDIO  model  is  aimed  not  only  to  offer  a  integral  engineering  education, increase the quality of our programs, establishing a cycle of continuous improvement and also to 
encourage students by offering a challenging curriculum that focuse
s its professional component on solving engineering problems.
