Awarded title:

Information Technology Engineering

Duration:

9 semesters

Career description:

The Information Technology Engineer applies his solid knowledge to the design, development and implementation of computer solutions required by organizations, meeting the human needs derived from interaction with the computer. He is competent to keep computer equipment operating efficiently and offers the user comprehensive solutions to the problems associated with the computer area.

The Objectives of the Information Technology Engineering Curriculum offered by the Polytechnic University of San Luis Potosí emphasize seven important aspects in the training of the Engineer,

which give them a solid preparation to perform successfully in the world of work:

1 Acquisition and adequate use of the knowledge of Mathematics and Basic Sciences, as foundations for a broad exercise of the profession;

2 Skilled management of knowledge of technologies;

3 Use and development of information technology for innovation;

4 Application of research methods to identify problems and independently develop solutions;

5 Comprehensive training with adequate use of the Spanish language, command of the English language, development of logical thinking and self-study skills;

6 Flexible training supported by a Tutorial System for the efficient use of time and the recovery of knowledge acquired through other means;

7 The acquisition of theoretical bases to continue with postgraduate studies.

At the end of the Information Technology Engineering students must complete a 480-hour professional residency, where they put into practice what was learned in the classroom; although in many of the Information Technology Engineering subjects, final projects must be carried out for application in industry and research that allow an experiential approach early in their career.

There is also the activity of the student chapter of the ACM (Association for Computing Machinery), whose purpose is to promote professional ethics in students, contribute to the development of student skills through the different programming contests promoted by ACM, and improve the quality of education in the institution by carrying out and participating in the different workshops, conferences and congresses organized by ACM.

Information Technology Engineering students can be members of the robotics club in which students can apply their knowledge of mathematics, physics, computer programming, skills such as analysis, logic and abstraction to develop sophisticated routines that generate movements in LEGO robots.

Educational Program Mission 

“The Educational Program of the Information Technology Engineering career is committed to excellence in comprehensive and human training, and to learning, development and application of knowledge in the fields of software development and implementation, offering a solution integral to the problems associated with the computational area. It is committed to society to maintain a relevant educational offer in the area and develop applied research involving students in solving technological problems in society. “ 

ProPE 2016-2017 

V ision of the Educational Program 

The Information Technology Engineering PE will deliver to society students trained with the highest professional standards.   

• Graduates who have skills relevant to the needs of their environment, and are recognized in the workplace for their high performance and personal quality;   
• A significant percentage of them carry out postgraduate studies in the country or abroad.   
• They will have important certifications in the area, current and internationally recognized.   
• They will be certified in English language proficiency by the British Council.   

• They will have practical experience acquired in laboratories, in case studies and in their professional stay and,   
• They will be skilled in handling new technologies and will recognize the learning process as a permanent necessity.   

The Information Technology Engineering PE will have a consolidated academic staff based on the highest standards.   

• 80% of the PTC will have recognition of the PROMEP Profile, 89% will be doctors and 44% of them will belong to the SNI.   

• They will maintain a collegiate work methodology and will actively participate in academic bodies that participate in national and international research networks.    
• The projects will be financed by public and private institutions, allowing additional resources to be obtained.   
• The PE will be evaluated by CIEES.    
• You will be committed to accountability for your quality and the federal, state, and fringe revenue you earn.   

Graduates will have a close relationship with the University through courses, diplomas, specialties and postgraduate courses.
