Abstract
The aim of this study was to analyze the academic productivity and the perceived teaching quality of tenure track professors of four engineering majors of a University Institution in Colombia. Academic productivity in Colombia refers to scientific articles publications, congress presentations, awards, patents, technical consulting, and graduate thesis advising. Institutional documents were analyzed and two questionnaires, one for teachers and other for students were applied. The data collected were studied using analysis of variance (p<0,05). The highest academic productivity was in Food Engineering, followed by Chemical Engineering, Systems Engineering and Civil Engineering. It was found that most students related academic productivity of professors with the perception of quality in education in Food Engineering, while for Civil Engineering students there was no relation between productivity and quality teaching.
