摘要
In the fields of Sciences, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, both in career and professional contexts, the society is underrepresented. Technology is part of daily life for most of the population, the introduction of concepts such as diversity and inclusion when developing technology is a crucial objective to achieve a society built on these values. Software and technology must be developed taking into account people, converting diversity and equity concepts related to technological development. The main objective of this work is to describe a case study implemented in the Software Engineering I subject of the Degree in Computer Engineering of the University of Salamanca (Spain) to lay the foundations to establish actions to foster diversity and inclusion into engineering curricula.
