I am pleased to inform you that leading administrators, including presidents, deans and faculty from several universities of Latin America, the Caribbean, and U.S.A. have met during several occasions to explore the ways to advance engineering education, research and practice in Latin America and the Caribbean. The group founded the Latin American and Caribbean Consortium of Engineering Institutions (LACCEI) in January 2003 at the First General Conference held in Santiago, Dominican Republic, attended by over 200 individuals representing 24 universities.
The mission of LACCEI is to be the leading organization of Latin American and Caribbean Engineering Institutions that will bring innovations in engineering education and research, and emerge as a major force in this hemisphere to foster partnerships among academia, industry, government and private organizations for the benefit of the society and the nations.
The goal of LACCEI is to foster cooperation and partnerships among member institutions in the areas of engineering education, research, and technology advancement with emphasis on:
• Faculty and student exchange
• New and/or higher level academic programs
• Dual/joint degree and certificate programs
• Distance, continuing and e-education
• Laboratory development and sharing of resources
• Curriculum development, course equivalency and accreditation support
• Faculty development including higher degrees
• Outreach activities and programs
• Industry internship, cooperative programs and career development
• Joint training and research programs, and solicitation of funds
• Development, commercialization and transfer of technology
• Dissemination of scholarly achievements and other accomplishments by member institutions.
The Second LACCEI General Conference will be held in Miami, Florida on June 2-4, 2004.
I take this opportunity to invite your institution to become a member of LACCEI and participate in its activities, including the second conference to be held in Miami. For more information, please visit our website at
I hope that you and some of your administrators and faculty members will be able to participate in this academic endeavor that will advance the Engineering education and research in this hemisphere. I also hope that your faculty will be able to get actively involved in LACCEI through participation on various committees.
