Sumario:Public policies for the assurance of educational quality arising from transnational globalization policies have been active since the 1990s in Colombia and its region. Various processes for the renewal of university institutions and their academic programs whose curricula had to be adapted to official regulations, leading to a kind of drift. Today they are an unavoidable subject to understand the particular development of the curricular field in these nations, as authors in Mexico, Argentina and in our own country have already assumed. In this perspective, this article considers some elements resulting from the analysis carried out on the way in which Colombian universities have made national guidelines observable in Law and Graphic Design programs. The research in reference to a descriptive-analytical nature, was approached from the socio-critical theory of the curriculum with an express hermeneutic interest and was carried out based on primary sources of a normative nature and documentary sources of institutional order from 24 public and private universities from the country. The contrast between the sources made it possible to establish that within the framework of university autonomy today there are different curricular continents as a result of drifts either with affirmations or with displacements of the norm in various senses, as well as it is also possible to foresee tensions, fractures and overlaps in this field.
