O impacto da escassez de disciplinas de business intelligence na formação de engenheiros de produção no estado do Ceará

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of the absence of Business Intelligence (BI) courses in the education of production engineers in Ceará. The job market increasingly demands professionals with skills in data analysis and BI tools for strategic decision-making. The study conducted research in 22 higher education institutions to identify the presence of BI-related courses in Production Engineering programs. The methodology involved the analysis of course curricula and comparison with current market demands. The results indicated a significant shortage of specific BI courses, which may hinder students' preparation for the challenges of Industry 4.0. It is concluded that the inclusion of BI courses in production engineering programs is essential to better equip professionals for the job market, enabling them to meet the new technological and analytical demands of modern industry.
