This paper examines the perception undergraduate students have, prior to graduation, regarding the attributes they have developed in terms of transferable and communicative skills. The goal was to shed light on how undergraduate students in the context of this research perceive their graduate profile. This study was carried out at a university school of languages in southeast Mexico over the course of a year, from August 2016 to July 2017. Thirty male and female students participated in the study. Their ages ranged from 21 to 30 years old. They all were about to complete the last term of the BA program at the time the data were collected. The data collection tools used for this inquiry were interviews and surveys. The former were used to get an insight, in general terms, into the participants’ perceptions whereas the latter provided richer information about the students’ perceived competences and skills. The data suggest that students perceived gains in critical thinking skills, research skills, language skills, autonomy, and motivation as part of the attributes they developed within the program. However, attributes regarding teaching skills, learning strategies, technology skills, teamwork and ability to develop new projects and ideas are perceived as poorly developed or not acquired at all.

学生对英语研究生学位的学士学位的看法

本文考察了大学生在毕业之前已经具备的感知能力，即他们在可传递和交流技巧方面的发展能力。目的是阐明本研究背景下的本科生如何看待他们的研究生概况。这项研究是在2016年8月至2017年7月的一年中在墨西哥东南部的一所大学语言学院进行的。三十名男女学生参加了这项研究。他们的年龄从21岁到30岁不等。他们都将在收集数据时完成BA课程的最后一个学期。用于此查询的数据收集工具是访谈和调查。一般而言，前者是用来获得洞察力的，进入参与者的感知，而后者则提供了有关学生感知能力和技能的更丰富的信息。数据表明，学生认为在批判性思维技能，研究技能，语言技能，自主性和动机方面的收获是他们在计划中发展的属性的一部分。但是，与教学技能，学习策略，技术技能，团队合作精神以及开发新项目和构想的能力有关的属性被认为发展不佳或根本没有获得。
