This study aims to explore how higher education institutions respond to the challenge of incorporating soft skills into their curricula. It employs a mixed-methods approach in which the quantitative analysis of the disciplines addressing this issue is complemented by a thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews conducted with four higher education institutions in Portugal. The findings indicate that although the number of subjects specifically addressing soft skills is small, there is a growing concern to incorporate soft skills in pedagogical and evaluation methodologies in each course. Several challenges, good practices, and future perspectives are also explored in this work.

在高等工程课程中开发软技能的策略
这项研究旨在探讨高等教育机构如何应对将软技能纳入课程的挑战。它采用一种混合方法的方法,其中对解决这一问题的学科进行定量分析,并与对葡萄牙四个高等教育机构进行的半结构化面试的主题分析进行补充。研究结果表明,尽管专门针对软技能的科目数量很少,但人们越来越关注将软技能纳入每门课程的教学和评估方法中。在这项工作中还探讨了一些挑战,良好做法和未来观点。
