Immediately after, he studied his masters in electrical engineering, obtaining this degree in 1995, both from the Tec de Monterrey.
[3] After finishing his masters, Gutiérrez Vega spent some years working in fiber optics, participating in projects in various parts of Mexico.
Gutiérrez Vega considers the center is “second family.”[6][3][7] Personal research fields primarily are nondiffracting propagation of wavefields, solutions of the Helmholtz and paraxial wave equation: Mathieu, parabolic and Ince-Gaussian beams, laser resonators, numerical methods of special function and quantum and classical billiards.
[8][7] He won the awards at Tec de Monterrey for his teaching as well as the Rómulo Garza Prize for his research work.
[3][8] He was also the first Mexican to be named senior member of the International Society of Optics and Photonics, serving in this organization as conference chair, editor, student chapter advisor and more.
