This study analyzes the relevance of the competences developed in undergraduate projects of the students within the Forest Engineering curriculum project at the Francisco Jose de Caldas District University, with respect to the professional profile adopted and approved by the Ministry of Education; hence, the undergraduate dissertation defenses approved between 2015 and 2017 developed by the students trained with the updated curriculum in 2009 to satisfy this career profile were compiled. The projects were classified by competence; for each evaluation criteria were defined, based on the common characteristics of the subjects covered by these projects, with four levels of development of each competence, which proceeded to make the qualification of the undergraduate projects. A total of 67 undergraduate projects with dissertation defense approved until 2017 were found as part of the new curriculum, whose 62 were granted access to develop the evaluation. There was no evidence of proportionality between the development of the demonstrated competences and the number of projects in each one. On the other hand, it was observed that most of the competences cover many subjects whereby they demonstrate generality but lose specificity, which in most cases evidences a very basic development of the skills of a forest engineer trained in the District University.
