Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education or Tecnológico de Monterrey was founded in 1943 and is a private, non-profit institution independent of and not related to any political party or religious group.
The work of the Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education and of all of its campuses is supported by civil associations made up of a large group of outstanding leaders from all parts of the country, who are committed to quality in higher education.
Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education enjoys the support of the national community, which participates in the lotteries the institution organizes to expand the scholarship program and the investment in infrastructure.
Today, Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education is a multi-campus university system with academic centers in different regions of the country.
The prestige that Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education attained from the start, not only for its academic standards but also for the culture of entrepreneurship, hard work, efficiency and responsibility it seeks to instill in its students, has motivated alumni from different regions of the country to promote the establishment of Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education campuses in their home cities.
This has given Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education a perception of the different needs of each region and the capacity to prepare professionals who can meet them, without leaving their local environment. In addition, since Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education is a nation-wide system, it has accepted the responsibility to respond to the important challenges facing the country.
Using learning networks and advanced information technologies, the Virtual University offers graduate academic programs; continuing education programs for directors of Mexican and Latin American companies, as well as government and non-governmental organizations; programs for elementary and secondary school teachers; and programs for the development of marginalized communities.
In operation since 1989, Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education’s Virtual University has become a pioneering institution in distance education in the Americas.
