Avances y retos en la UdeC

Posted by Juan Carlos Yáñez Velazco

Cuando se acerca el fin del periodo rectoral que iniciara Miguel Ángel Aguayo hace ocho años, es obligado efectuar los balances del progreso de la Universidad de Colima durante dicho lapso. Una pretensión tal es desmesurada para una persona y más aún en el espacio de una columna periodística, pero quiero referirme a algunos aspectos del ámbito académico para mostrar los que, a mi juicio, son progresos inocultables que deben consolidarse en el futuro inmediato.

Tres puntos quiero comentar brevemente. El primero es la apertura de tres convocatorias para 21 plazas de tiempo completo en las facultades y centros de investigación; son las primeras en su tipo, mediante las cuales la contratación de nuevos profesores e investigadores se sujeta a los criterios definidos colegiadamente. Dicha práctica, iniciada para profesores de bachillerato en el periodo de Carlos Salazar Silva, después de algunos años también se reanudó en los últimos meses en educación media superior con nuevas diez plazas. Los concursos de oposición son un paso adelante, incipiente aun, pero que marca un camino sin retorno, a perfeccionarse, por supuesto.

Una segunda cuestión es la creación de una oficina, la dirección general de Desarrollo del Personal Académico, dedicada a la atención de procesos académicos de contratación, actualización, evaluación, reconocimiento y promoción de la parte más vital de la universidad: su personal académico. Se acostumbra decir que los alumnos son la razón de ser de la Universidad, y es cierto para la función docencia, pero no es menos cierto que el personal académico es la forma de ser, la condición más importante para cumplir las otras dos grandes funciones de una universidad pública: la investigación y la llamada “misión social”, la extensión de la universidad al conjunto de la sociedad.

El tercer renglón que quiero destacar en esta visión personal es el avance de la internacionalización en carreras y facultades, expresado en dos indicadores: la movilidad de los estudiantes a universidades nacionales y extranjeras, así como los acuerdos para impulsar once programas de doble grado o doble titulación, ya aprobados y vigentes en la institución. Es verdad, la internacionalización arrancó en el anterior periodo, pero en este recibió un impulso decisivo que solo cabe reforzar con determinación.

Estos son, a mi parecer, tres logros destacados de la comunidad académica en estos años, pero no son para siempre, así que allí están, también, una parte de los compromisos para una agenda que permita consolidar el presente y labrar un futuro venturoso.
