TRAVELING AROUND MEXICO
from January 4th to January 29th
iWinterMX is a program designed for international students who love traveling and learning about new cultures.
Students will live in four vibrant cities in Mexico. The Santa Fe district in Mexico City, the colonial city of Queretaro, the industrialized Leon and the modern business and industrial center in Monterrey. They will make everlasting memories exercising their intellectual curiosity and developing entrepreneurship, innovation and leadership skills, in a multicultural setting.
Located west of Mexico City, and designed by the world-famous architect Ricardo Legorreta, Santa Fe campus was built in 2001 and is one of the newest among other 31 campuses of Tec de Monterrey throughout Mexico. Our campus is located in Santa Fe area, the newest commercial and residential neighborhood that has become the greatest economic activity center within the Mexican capital. Our privileged location, close to charming cities like Cuernavaca and Puebla, allows students to travel and enjoy diverse experiences while living within the heart of the country.
Campus Querétaro is the fourth largest in the country with more than 7000 students, 55% of which come from other states and more than 400 international students of different nationalities are welcomed every year. Queretaro is located in the heart of Mexico, just a 2-hour drive away from Mexico City. Its great location, modern infrastructure, and excellent diversity of people, food and touristic places makes the state one of the best destinations to visit. Queretaro is one of the safest, innovative, and state-of- the-art sectors in industrial production, education, and technology.
The campus opened its doors in 1978. Located in the center of the country, Leon is famous for its leather industry which produces high quality leather shoes and clothes. Troughout the year, Leon is a host to international events like the Hot Air Ballom Festival and the Rally Race, amazing events that cannot be missed. Nowadays, Leon is also know for being one of the best automotive production clusters in the country and for its nearness to Puerto Interior, one of the best industrial parks in Mexico and Latin America.
Monterrey:
The main campus is located in a modern industrial and business center only 230km far from the USA border. The city, also known as "Sultana del Norte" (Lady of the North), hosts a set of transnational conglomerates with 10 out of 20 of the most important Mexican firms located in Monterrey. The Campus has been designed to create the perfect environment motivating the engagement with intensive academic activity and research as well as recreation, and allowing the full innovative and entrepreneurial potential to flourish.
