Abstract: The parsimonious progress towards the digital transformation of education has been one of the edges of the educational crisis experienced in Latin America whose reality became more evident with the abrupt pandemic situation where the conditions of inequality and poverty take on a more significant harmful impact to the less privileged social classes being flagrantly violated the human right to education. In the case of higher education, this problem is exacerbated by the bias of particular interests, traditionalist governance, rigid curricula, teachers with little or no training in pedagogies with the use of technology and students with minimal or no opportunities to access a computer and internet. In conclusion, we can indicate that the contribution made by professionals in Computer Science and engineering is abysmal, however, no effort will be enough if students are not allowed access to information and communication technologies in an equal way, declaring this as a violation of first-generation constitutional rights such as equality and others such as access to quality education. Considering the circumstances will the digital transformation be able to support universities in the resilient action they must adopt to safeguard engineering education or will it increase the gap during the pandemic and post-pandemic?
