UP Campus: Guadalajara

In the Digital Animation Engineering degree we decided to create a fusion between the artistic part of animation with technical engineering knowledge.

With our curriculum you will be able to obtain the key skills sought by leading companies in the development of video games, software, applications and audiovisual content.

In Animation Engineering we seek the best development for our students, that is why we have experiences and programmes such as:

• By studying Animation as engineering, you increase your career scope and have more opportunities for professional development.
• More than 80% of our graduates work in the animation industry, both in Mexico and in the United States and Canada.

Among our teachers we have the experience of:

• Jaime Jasso (Oscar winner for Avatar)
• Omar García (RIOT Games)
• Daniel Schmid (The Mandalorian, Star Wars, Aladdin)

Our curriculum is designed so that our students graduate with a bachelor's degree and a major in five years.
