The contemporary demands on doctors who work in Mexico in the area of Urology require that they make great efforts to continuously reduce morbidity and mortality from urological diseases. Diseases of the urinary system occupy fourth place nationally, with a mean national rate of 5,0 (INEGI, 2004). Moreover, the most common causes for hospital stays for the 45 to 64 year-old age group are those related to the genitourinary tract (OPS, Cap. Mexico), which, without adequate attention from competent urologists, will continue to grow at the same rate as the population growth, generating great health problems and unnecessary expenses for the nation.
Offering high-quality urological medicine requires strict discipline in the formation of healthcare professionals who are committed to the social, political, economic and cultural development of the community. In accordance with these demands, the Medical Residency in Urology seeks to train highly competent specialist doctors who are able to perform minimally invasive surgical techniques, as well as other new methods of study, medical treatment and surgery for the solution of problems of the prostate, urinary lithiasis and, above all, urogenital cancer. They must be people and professionals who act with integrity and ethical values in their daily activities, who respect life and human dignity, who are internationally competitive and who have capacity to provide complete and excellent medical attention, in accordance with the Mission and Vision of Tecnológico de Monterrey.
The Multicentric Program of Urology of Tecnológico de Monterrey is backed by excellent university infrastructure and an educational model based on skills and centered on the patient. It provides well-structured educational and research programs and processes, offered by medical specialists with educational training, who converge in a framework of medical attention with the Hospital ?

This facility is a specialty hospital certified in quality processes for medical attention, with both inpatient and outpatient facilities, and a high-level urology department. Residents receive the state-of-the-art technological, scientific and educational support that they need for their development. They are exposed to different models of healthcare attention and management in a regional, national and international context, which allows them to acquire the skills necessary for successful performance in the different areas of Urology.
