Abstract: The Balanced Academic Curriculum Problem (BACP) is considered an optimization problem, which consist in the assignment of courses in periods that form an academic curriculum so that the prerequisites are satisfied and the courses load is balanced for students. The BACP is a constraint satisfaction problem classified as NP- Hard. In this paper we present the solution to a modified problem BACP where the loads can be the equals or different for each one of the periods and is allowed to have some courses in a specific period. This problem is modeled as an integer programming problem, for which had been obtained solutions for some of their instances with HyperLingo but not for all. Therefore, we propose the use of evolutionary strategies for its solution. The results obtained for the instances of the modified and the original BACP, proposed in the CSPLib, showing that with the use of evolutionary strategies is possible to find the solution for instances of the problem that with the forma l method is not possible to find.
