CANARI MARTICORENA, Hugo Fernando et al. Autocad and academic performance of engineering students in a public university, Huancayo-2025. Tribunal [online]. 2025, vol.5, n.13, pp.724-737.  Epub 02-Oct-2025. ISSN 2959-6513.  https://doi.org/10.59659/revistatribunal.v5i13.298.

This study was conducted in a context where digital tools are increasingly shaping university education, spurred by the pandemic and the need to modernize engineering drawing instruction. The research examined how using AutoCAD impacts technical skill development and academic performance among students at a public university in Huancayo. A quasi-experimental quantitative approach was applied to analyze variable relationships. The study involved 124 students split into control and experimental groups (62 each). Over 16 weeks, the experimental group used AutoCAD, while the control group followed traditional drafting methods. Data revealed substantial progress in the AutoCAD group, with marked grade improvements and enhanced hands-on task proficiency. The findings confirm that this software enhances both technical skills and classroom performance, proving to be a valuable resource for engineering education.

Palabras clave : AutoCAD; University education; Technical competencies; Academic performance; Quasi-experimental design.
