Abstract

The article discusses the need to build strategies for proper implementation of the new curriculum in accordance with the orientation and emphasis of innovation. This means taking on the challenge of training professionals who can interact with the complexities of contemporary society. Specifically it suggests the need to link curriculum management, formative vision and disciplinary fields. This would allow for adequate coordination among the different disciplinary lines of the career, namely, between theory and practice. A transformation that occurs because of the incorporation of the teaching model based on competency. Thus, it is expected that the future professional can solve problems and interact critically within his field of action.
