Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey - ITESM
speciality: Electrical Engineering

Extent of the curriculum was great. Level of knowledge required for each class was very high. Professors were really experienced and knowledgeable. Great connections with other unviersities. Overall, the programme was excellent

It is one of the best university in Mexico! I love that it offers so many extracurricular activities like sports, arts, leadership, and many more. The university itself is very modern and the experience of walking around is great. I am always meeting new people and the community of teachers and students are always willing to help you. The new Tec21 model can be a little hard to adapt to and could use a few improvements since it is still very new, but overall it gives you a chance to explore many areas so you can choose a career you really like. It is challenging because some courses have a 5 week length and there are a lot of topics so you feel like you only learn a little bit of everything and nothing fully. The good thing is that it gives you a close look at real world challenges since it is more practical than theoretical.

I liked that the programme was focused on industry requirements, the campus and overall infrastructure was very good. They balanced students social and sport activities with academic performance. Great sports program.

The university makes sure in most cases to have the most highly trained professors and to teach the new trends in the industry.

The offer of careers by campus is very limited if it is a campus that is not located in the main cities of the country, which means that many students have to transfer to another campus. This causes that the student body is reduced in the first years, which although it can be an advantage in the communication between student and teacher, you are not offered a student coexistence as you would expect. The university tries to carry out activities of coexistence but the fact that that there are few students with very different schedules makes it very difficult.

This does not usually happen on campuses with the largest student body such as Monterrey, CDMX and Guadalajara.

The new educational system (Tec 21) has many positive things such as projects, however for the engineering area this system causes a lot of workload due to the fact that a very short time is established for complex topics and a high number of exams.
