Abstract:
This paper examines the challenges posed by the penetration of disruptive information technologies (IT) in society, and the need to use them in favor of providing a better life to its citizens, as the center of the concept of Society 5.0. Furthermore, we describe an effort undertaken in Mexico to define referential curricular models for IT programs based on competencies, so that guidance is provided to educational institutions about what needs to be considered to successfully design curricula, and address the challenges of today’s work environment.
