We live in times where various technologies, such as computing and telecommunications, grow at exponential rates and a fundamental value of today's societies is their ability to generate knowledge and apply it to the solution of needs, in the same way, there has been no better time in history in which there is such ease of access to information and technological availability. In response, societies are learning to optimize the processes by which knowledge is transferred as quickly as possible from its generating centers to the wealth-producing factors. Thus, in a natural way, collaboration networks between specialists are making it possible to address complex problems and find pertinent and sustainable solutions.
The postgraduate program arises with the conviction that it is necessary to take advantage of the unique opportunities that arise to strengthen the capacities that the country demands. At the Center, this capacity for innovation is expressed in some of the lines that are cultivated, or their mixture, which includes: Image Analysis, Biotechnology, Alternative Energies, Mechatronics, and Materials Processing and Manufacturing.
