In Innovation and Design Engineering we combine the creative capacity of a designer with the analytical and technical capacity of an engineer, thus generating innovative products and services. Our program accompanies students throughout the creative process, from the detection of the need, the development of a concept and prototype of the product, to its production and sale.
The curriculum contemplates the entire life cycle of the product, enriched with design, marketing, new materials and consumer psychology subjects; it seeks to generate functional and sustainable products that optimize costs, resources and have a positive impact on people's quality of life. This, together with our prestigious faculty that combines researchers recognized by the National System of Researchers and experts who work for companies with international presence, achieve through personalized education, academic excellence of high standards in each student.
We have recognised and certified High Impact laboratories for their technological level. Our programme is the only one of its kind in Mexico.
