21th LACCEI International Multi-Conference for Engineering, Education and Technology (LACCEI 2023)
What is The OAS Summit of Engineering for the Americas?
LACCEI was selected by the Organization of American States (OAS) in 2005 to be part of the Engineering for the Americas (EftA) action plan to advance the accreditation and quality assurance of engineering programs in the Americas. As of 2016, the OAS officially established "The OAS Engineering Summit for the Americas" to coincide with the LACCEI International Multiconference and designated our organization as the OAS "Engineering Center of Excellence for the Americas", an important credential that allows LACCEI to strengthen the quality of education in Engineering, Academic Leadership and Student Competitions.
What is LACCEI?
LACCEI (Latin American and Caribbean Consortium of Engineering Institutions), is a non-profit entity made up of institutions that offer programs in engineering, computing, technology or education and that participate in an academic or investigative manner with other institutions at an international level. Its purpose is promoting global collaboration for the continuous advancement of engineering, technology, education, research, practice and innovation, and connecting Latin America and the Caribbean with the rest of the world. Today we have more than 200 participating institutions from 20 countries in 3 continents and for the last 20 years we have been holding an annual multilingual academic multiconference that accepts scientific articles in English, Spanish, Portuguese, and French.
LACCEI 2023
In 2023, working within the framework of the LACCEI-CONFEDI inter-institutional Cooperation Agreement and in collaboration with the OAS, the joint development was initiated in a hybrid format of the conferences: "OAS Summit of Engineering for the Americas", the "21st LACCEI International Multiconference for Engineering, Education and Technology", the "4th Latin American Congress of Engineering", and the "2nd Latin American and Caribbean Tribology Conference". It was held in Buenos Aires (Argentina) and organized by Facultad de Ingeniería de la Universidad de Buenos Aires (FIUBA), Florida Atlantic University (FAU), and Universidad Tecnológica Nacional (UTN).
