Engineering in Focus: COBENGE 2023 Arrives in Rio de Janeiro

A dynamic meeting connecting professionals, institutions and Engineering enthusiasts in a vibrant setting.

The stage? The traditional Cefet-RJ Maracanã. The date? From September 18th to 20th. The occasion? The 51st Brazilian Congress of Engineering Education (COBENGE), an exponent when it comes to training and professional practice in Engineering in Brazil.

Partnerships and Protagonism

Representing institutional strength and dedication to professional development, the Crea-RJ shines as a prominent member of the inaugural table. The public can expect presentations of the Council's educational initiatives, such as Progredir and Crea Júnior – RJ, which have been essential bridges in building the future of Engineering.

Central Axis and Debates

In this edition, the theme that drives discussions and reflections is: “ABENGE 50 years: challenges of teaching, research and extension in engineering education”. COBENGE is recognized for being a platform for dialogue and exchange between academics, professionals and entrepreneurs. Luis Antonio Cosenza, president of Crea-RJ, highlights the collaborative essence of the congress and the Council's commitment to strengthening educational quality in Engineering.

On September 20, one of the highlights is the Special Session “Citizen Engineering”, which will address topics of diversity, equity and inclusion in social technologies, with the presence of international and national experts.

Programming and Purpose

In addition to enriching debates, the event offers lectures, short courses, workshops and the presentation of scientific advances. It is a true showcase of innovation and networking in the world of Engineering, providing integration between the academic community and the professional world.

The enthusiasm is shared by Crea-RJ leaders. For Érick Braga Ferrão Galante, proximity to educational institutions is key to driving excellence in Engineering.

Interactivity and Tradition

Marcelo Tadeu, from Crea-RJ's Trainee Supervision, sees COBENGE as a unique opportunity for interaction. During the congress, participants will be able to clarify doubts about Crea-RJ's educational programs and learn more about the ongoing collaboration with universities.

Organized by the Brazilian Association of Engineering Education (ABENGE) since 1973, COBENGE is a national reference. In 2023, the event will take place in partnership with Cefet/RJ, reinforcing ties and traditions.

For those who wish to delve into this universe of discoveries and connections, registration is available open on the official COBENGE 2023 website, where more information awaits enthusiasts of Mechatronics.
