Innovation and Design Engineering
At Ingeniería en Innovación y Diseño we combine the creativity of a designer with the analytical and technical capacity of an engineer.
That is why, in our curriculum, we contemplate the entire creative process of the life of a product. This starts with the detection of a need, the development and prototyping of the product, and ends with the production and sale of the product.
For a better experience and academic development, our students study design, marketing, new materials and consumer psychology. The aim of these subjects is to generate functional and sustainable products, which optimise costs, resources and have a positive impact.
Our professors are researchers recognised by the National System of Researchers, who provide a personalised education of academic excellence.
At Innovation and Design we have the following advantages in our programme:
- Unique programme in Mexico
- Laboratories recognised and certified as High Impact for their technological grade
- Industry-related projects
- Triple certification in important areas of design and engineering
- International experiences, exchanges, competitions and congresses
- 4+1 Programme, our students graduate with two degrees in four years, plus one year of specialisation.
