Due to the growing globalization and advances in technologies that have favoredan increasingly competitive world, that is, an increasingly integrated world economy, with new information and communication technologies, the emergence of international knowledge networks; the role of other languages, among others. That is why the internationalization of higher education, has become a model to be followed in universities, where it include the international competencies of the graduate profile. Since, today, university students deal an increasingly demanding and competitive job market.
