University Social Responsibility is gaining more and more strength as an organizational management model, providing benefits to both the university organization and its stakeholders. The research seeks to analyze the management of University Social Responsibility, and the perception of the main stakeholders in the Faculty of Engineering of an accredited University in the Caribbean region.
To achieve the objective, trends in social responsibility are investigated, where the methodology proposed by Vallaeys et al. (2009) Likewise, a characterization of the University's social responsibility programs was carried out, followed by surveys of direct interest groups, in order to analyze their perception regarding University Social Responsibility in the Faculty of Engineering.
From the results, it should be noted that the programs with the highest degree of maturity and potential for growth with respect to University Social Responsibility are electrical and electronic engineering. It can be concluded that the engineering faculty has features of social responsibility, but requires improvement actions that with the proposed theory can reach the desired maturity.
