This article presents the results of a research on
the achievements and challenges of international academic
cooperation to contribute to professional training in higher
education. To achieve this goal, it describes relevant aspects
inherent to the modality through a case study focused in a
multilateral Project; specifically, the VISIR + Project that
involves engineering careers from six Latin American and
European countries. Methodologically, it is based on participant
observation in different instances of its implementation (in
person meetings and virtual interchanges). The results allow to
systematize its achievements and challenges, in order to promote
international academic cooperation as a fundamental strategy
for the improvement of higher education.
