With the aim of encouraging the development of innovative proposals that qualitatively improve teaching and learning outcomes for Usach students, the Undergraduate Directorate of the Academic Vice-Rector's Office invites professors to apply each year for funding from the Teaching Innovation Projects (PID) competition.

In the 2025 call for proposals, 27 projects were selected, and their implementation began on August 18. They have been allocated 5 million pesos in funding and a two-year timeframe.

Contained within the University of Santiago, Chile's assessment are a series of findings, challenges, and recommendations focused on two pivotal institutional issues: the connection between research and teaching, and coordination across undergraduate and graduate programs. 

This study aligns with Project USA 23992, which focuses on “Implementation of policies to link research with undergraduate programs and coordination between undergraduate and graduate programs, strengthening the generation of advanced human capital.”
