Sumario:The study plans of engineering careers in Argentina are being revised due to the new regulations on the scope and activities reserved for degrees and the proposal of new accreditation standards before the National Commission for University Accreditation (CONEAU). It incorporates a learning model centered on the student and or move away from the initial training and the assessment of the engineers regarding their own career path.  oriented to the development of competences, both generic of the engineer's graduation (Argentine and Latin American) and specific of each terminal (25 degrees in Argentina). Within this framework, the analysis of the professional insertion of engineers becomes a significant contribution to the debate on the changes in curricula and professional profiles. The purpose of the work is to configure the professional field for Mechanical Engineering in the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires in relation to certain economic and technoproductive projects and the imprint of the National Technological University, in addition to investigating the occupational differentiations of the profession. The biographical accounts of the graduates of the Avellaneda Regional Faculty - National Technological University are analyzed with respect to their educational and labor paths that are combined and interrelated in order to understand the changes and differences in the professional paths and the sectors that demand them, as well as their imbrications with the economic, socio-political and professional labor market contexts. From a retrospective approach, it is shown how the professional trajectory will adjust
