Abstract: The Academic Body of Engineering and Systems (InySis) seeks to expand the research capabilities and scientific productivity of university students who are studying the second and third semester of Computer Engineering and Computer Engineering respectively by applying the active learning methodology through the Getting Started colloquium in Research: Proactive University Students (CIIEUPA). Given this context, the objective of this work arises, which is to know the skills acquired by the students participating in the colloquium, which in turn is applied as an active learning methodology and is part of the evaluation criteria of the learning units. Method: The study was developed with a qualitative and descriptive nature, through observations and interviews. Results: The empirical results have shown that a significant impact was had on the academic performance of the students and on the perceived learning experience, in conclusion The CIIEUPA was essentially very positive: the students felt involved in the construction of learning and teaching paths, to those who helped with their shared knowledge. Teamwork, as well as the in-person public presentation of the final work, have helped reinforce their selfesteem, their sense of belonging to a learning community, and their positive disposition towards the discipline
