Abstract

Scientific results have been reported on the importance of Physics in the training of engineers, and applications in the solution of professional problems, but manifests as problematic the little existence of didactic proposals that articulate Physics with the specific sciences of the profession, highlighting inadequacies in the content professionalization. The objective of the work is to exemplify the professionalization of Molecular Physics and Thermodynamics in the Civil Engineering career, First year of Regular Course at the University of Holguín, and to assess the learning results of students, in the second semester of the 2020-21 school year. An exploratory and descriptive study was carried out with the use of theoretical, empirical and comparative analysis methods. The population was two natural groups of 22 students each. A random sample of 10 students (45.45%) from each group was taken. The results highlight the didactic development of the content professionalization, and value the learning of the students. It can be seen that the average of the grades in the frequent and partial evaluations of the experimental group is higher than the control group, which did not receive the influence of the didactic proposal (4.2-3.7). The results obtained show the feasibility of the application of the content professionalization in the training of Civil Engineers.
