Statement of principles
(Signed by the founders on october 20, 1972)
We, the founders of the Colombian School of Engineering Julio
Garavito, engineers and professors of engineering, convinced of
the urgent need for the country to have an institution dedicated
solely to facilitate the training of all those interested in learning
the science and the technology in the field of engineering,
in order to use our knowledge in the selfless service to the
community to achieve welfare for the Colombian people, make
the following statement of principles:
• With the foundation of the Colombian School of Engineering,
Julio Garavito, we do our task to contribute with the means
at our disposal to train engineers whose distinctive
characteristics are the high technical skills and their spirit of
social solidarity.
• For the fulfillment of the task we have set, the guidelines
of the Colombian School of Engineering, Julio Garavito, tend
towards the formation of the engineers both in the scientific
and technical aspects and in social and humanistic aspects.
• The integral education must be understood as a supportive
process between professors and students motivated by the
community of objectives; therefore, the active participation
of each other in this process is required without meaning the
participation of students in managerial and administrative
functions of the institution.
• Both the integral education of engineers and other tasks that
the Colombian School of Engineering Julio Garavito carries
out will be referred to a conceptual framework focusing on
the study and knowledge of the Colombian reality, so the
engineers educated in the School can be in a position to
formulate solutions to national problems and carry them out
successfully.
• In the development of all its activities, the Colombian
School of Engineering Julio Garavito will keep absolute
independence from all political, racial, economic or religious
creeds and, therefore, will be outside all partisan interest for
such beliefs.
• Those who aspire to educate themselves in the Colombian
School of Engineering, Julio Garavito shall not be discriminated
for reasons other than their skills and academic performance
and interest in obtaining an integral education.

REASEARCH AND INNOVATION
FOR THE SCHOOL ( I+i )11
The School understands research as a methodical process
of generation, appropriation and application of knowledge in
the scientific, technological and professional fields developed.
This process is based on logic, problematic and validity criteria
proper of these fields, as well as on the progress made by the
relevant academic and scientific communities, both at national
and international environments.
The high academic standards, the commitment to the
transformation of the social conditions and ethical behavior are
the institutional values that, as a priority, guide research and
are at the service of man. Of course, it also serves to conserve
the ecosystems, the scientific and technological progress, the
solution of social problems, the improvement of life quality
and the excellence of their own building projects in both
undergraduate and graduate studies of the institution.
The freedom of thought and academic pluralism that
the institution declares in its principles are reflected in the
autonomy that the academic community of the School has to
define the paradigms of research and to guide studies from

“El otoño” coliseum
El Otoño Coliseum is a cultural and sports center built with
the priority of providing the community with a space to integrate
sports and cultural activities which promote the welfare of all.
The architectural complex, designed by the firm Anzellini
Garcia- Reyes Architects, has been raised in three bodies that
host sporting, educational and wellness spaces which can be
enabled for cultural activities. The design and construction
involve engineering firms whose partners and employees are
graduates of the School, for example Aceraq, Botero Ibañez,
M&G Engineers, Oscar Giraldo & Co. and Gamma Ltd.
NATURE
The project is an architectural monument to sports and
culture. Its central cover of harmonic curves allow the perception
of the functions to be fulfilled:
• It has a central nave housing fields and an impressive center
of cultural events. It is organized in two zones: to the south,
the area covered and closed with basketball courts and to
the north, the covered and open zone with volleyball and
indoor soccer courts.

for entertainment.
• Metal center cover
• Flat side covers that are useful as terraces.
• Metal structure of columns and beams in the central nave.
• Structure of reinforced concrete arcades in the side aisles
with surface facades made of brick.
TECHNICAL AND SUSTAINABILITY CRITERIA
The project coordinates with precision technical variables in
the management of the structure, the construction system, the
light, the acoustics, the climate, the components and materials.
It is based on the concept of sustainability including
bioclimatic factors, design by coordinated systems for easy
maintenance, choice of energy saving and recycling.
Bioclimatic. The orientation of the coliseum allows controlling
the natural fall of the sunlight and the minimum energy
consumption for daytime electric lighting. The arrangement of
the tilting of the window frames facilitates cross circulation of
breeze for natural ventilation and release of hot air from inside.

human security.
FUNCTIONAL CRITERIA
The project has been conceived in the manner of multi-use
equipment that combines sports and cultural activities for both
the School community and external users. The zoning allows
for great flexibility in combining educational activities in small
enclosures, as well as social and cultural activities in a large
extended central enclosure.
Water supply system and networks. The hydraulic, sanitary,
electrical and voice and data networks will be on display,
organized in trays along circulation corridors of buildings 1
