Summary:In this paper we present a bibliometrics analysis of the 10 editions of the Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON). EDUCON is a conference of the IEEE Education Society for region 8. It started in 2010 and since then it is organized annually. With this study we intend to analyze the growth of the conference, namely through the evolution of the number of submissions/publications, and the number of citations per article. We also intend to analyze the number of references per article. A descriptive statistics of these indicators is done along the paper. With an initial set of 10 editions, it will be possible to investigate the impact of future editions, by performing a sliding-frame analysis, i.e. replacing the oldest by the newest edition and analyzing how this impacts the presented charts.
