Educational Model
Our educational model promotes collective learning by students, and asks them to reflect on their social context and to acquire the tools needed to transform it.
ITESO is the first university in Jalisco to be listed as an Institution of Academic Excellence by the Mexican Ministry of Public Education. This means that, in order to offer you the best tools for your academic performance, we constantly update our academic programs, as well as our academic and technological infrastructure.
ITESO's educational mission is to educate free, intelligent, and sensitive individuals who are committed to their society and determined to meet the needs of their communities.
Our proposal for the comprehensive formation of human persons in their multiple dimensions is based on interdisciplinary education, with flexible academic programs that emphasize learning and proximity to real-life work experiences.
At ITESO, university education means:
• Being autonomous and learning from your own actions and collaboration with others.
• Building your own learning for life. Developing wide-ranging professional skills, along with the specific skills related to your particular study program.
• Reflecting on your decisions and proposals in order to progressively improve your professional performance.
ITESO professors use a methodology that educates free people, capable of acting critically and innovatively to transform their context. The curricular structure of ITESO is flexible, so you have a margin of freedom to organize and focus your professional formation according to your own interests.
