Education strategies in Colombia are generated in the scenarios of everyday life in which the citizen interacts with the economy, politics, and culture of the country. The objective of the research focused on analyzing the incidence of the training of architects and designers at Faculty of Integrated Arts of Saint Bonaventure University in relation to citizenship competencies. The methodological approach is developed from a mixed perspective, as it builds and uses qualitative data derived from interviews with students and teachers of the workshops, contrasted with official information on the results of the Saber Pro tests and the evaluations of internships.

The analysis showed that there is an isolation in the development of project exercises from the realities of the economic, political, and social contexts in the disciplinary training, due to the lack of thematic links between the subjects within the programs. Therefore, it is concluded that the faculty should create strategies, which promote the training of professionals to work in interdisciplinary teams, which interact directly with the community.
