STUDY PLAN

* Students will completetheir thesis project, development of thesis and final defense at theend of 12 semesters of study, during which they credited 125 points,which will be applied to when finishing their thesis (priorauthorization of the academic committee) and passing the exam grade.

a Among the activitiesof the first predoctoral seminar it should be made clear to allstudents in the guidelines of the seminars, that when the"Introduction to inter-agency capabilities" seminar isoffered, this must be attended mandatorily.

b Students must fulfill60 credits of complementary activities, see Table 9 for the breakdownof credits and options to cover them.

*Industryand Advanced Manufacturing Engineering (IIMA).

*Mechatronicsand Mechanical Design (MDS).

*EnvironmentalEngineering (IA).

STUDY PLAN 

* The credit applicationis made by crediting all subjects and completion of the project.

** The creditapplication corresponds to the work of the Terminal Project presentedat the exam grade.

*** The Master´sProgram has a duration of 2 years on average, and 3 years maximum.

To form intellectual capital of an elevated scientific and technological level that can generate; innovate; apply and transmit current, academically and socially relevant knowledge; which will enable advanced development in the productive sector. This new knowledge will flow from all the substantive areas and disciplines found at all of participating CONAHCYT centers.

To train researchers, scientists and technologists to contribute to the advancement of the different disciplines of the program, both through their practical experiences and with the generation of new knowledge, from a multidisciplinary, critical and reflexive theoretical perspective by recognizing needs, analyzing and improving actual industrial practices.

CIATEC focuses in two areas for generation and/or application of the knowledge:

• Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering
  
• Environmental Engineering
  

Professionals with similar career foundations to the Terminal Option and areas of concentration. The candidate must demonstrate skills including the generation of testable ideas; an interest in research and technological development; initiative, creativity and the aptitude to work on a team. They must also demonstrate an aptitude to interpret, synthesize and deduce information from scientific material.

The graduate of this program will have professional and academic skills to: generate and apply scientific and technological knowledge for use by society in an optimal, original and creative way. They will demonstrate the ability to stay current with the state-of-the-art in their area of specialty, and the ability to become a leader, capable of proposing and developing innovative scientific and technological solutions for the development of the productive sector, in the area and discipline of their terminal option.

CIATEC works on two specific research areas of knowledge at the Masters and Doctorate levels.

Masters

• Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering 
  
• Environmental Engineering 
  

Doctorate

• Industrial Engineering and Advanced Manufacturing
  

• Environmental Engineering 

Each student will receive frequent and regular personalized attention under the management of their Tutorial Committee. This committee will be in charge of guiding, accompaniment and academic follow-up for each student. This committee hold a  co-responsibility for assuring the student's training, since one of its main functions is to structure each students personalized academic program.
