Gustavo A Madero Technological Institute II - ITGAM II
speciality: Civil & Structural Engineering

The Gustavo A. Madero II Technological Institute is a university that welcomes many students who were not admitted to institutions such as the National Autonomous University of Mexico, the National Polytechnic Institute, or the Metropolitan Autonomous University. Because of this, it becomes a second opportunity for them to continue their professional studies and not interrupt their academic training.
One of the institution’s strengths is that several professors are graduates of renowned universities, such as those mentioned earlier, and therefore possess strong knowledge and experience in their fields. However, there are also problems with some instructors, as they sometimes miss classes or only teach part of the scheduled time, sometimes even teaching for just half an hour when the class should last a full two hours.
As for the facilities, the campus is far too small for the number of students and is also poorly maintained. During my first few days at the university, there were no cleaning staff or custodians, so the classrooms were constantly dirty. It was common for trash to remain in the same place for several days; even a piece of paper could stay from Thursday until Monday without anyone picking it up.
Regarding the curriculum, I believe it largely depends on each student’s perspective. In my case, I feel it meets the needs of the program and that the content is effective in developing both basic and professional knowledge.
In conclusion, the Gustavo A. Madero II Technological Institute has met some of my expectations of a university, especially in providing the opportunity to continue my studies and offering some good professors. However, it has also disappointed me in areas such as organization, cleanliness, and the commitment of some teachers. Despite this, my experience during the first semester has been positive in several aspects, and I believe the school still has important areas for improvement.

The time I have been studying there is an organized and also competent institution. I like it a lot. The school is a little small, but I think it has the essentials to be a great institution since it is relatively new, but I feel that it has a lot of potential because of the teachers, the executives, and all the people.
