    abstract = {In Colombia, industrial engineering programs
are generally, evaluated by the results of their future
graduates in the SaberPRO Exam, this exam is developed
by the Colombian Institute for the Evaluation of
Education (ICFES). The objective of this article is to
compare the results of the SaberPRO tests, during the
years 2016-2018, of the industrial engineering programs
offered by the different Higher Education Institutions
(HEI) in Colombia in three forms by type of financing
(public HEI and private HEI by region and by
accreditation. The results showed significant differences
between public and private institutions as well as between
accredited and non-accredited institutions. Also, through
multiple factor analysis (AFM), the competition with the
greatest discriminatory power was identified which
allowed us to find 15 programs as references of the 82
evaluated.}
