Saltillo Institute of Technology

Founded in July 1950 by Mexican President Miguel Alemán Valdez, it started operations on January 3, 1951.

In 1951, the objective of the institution was to provide students technical degrees suitable for the industry; however, due to expansion, it later offered high school, engineering and graduate degrees.

By 1951, enrollment consisted of barely 314 students, but after 55 years of existence, it currently amounts to 7,016 students: (6,963 at the undergraduate level and 53 at the postgraduate level) in addition to the school staff (4 directors, 23 department heads, 424 professors, 16 researchers, 357 administrative staff and 74 service staff).

The institute campus is made up of 35 buildings, 153 classrooms, 20 laboratories and 4 auditoriums.
