Courses
Fundamentals
- Engineering research seminar.
Research, Development and Innovation (RDI)
- In these seminars your receive group and individual orientation to develop your final project.
- A minimum of 9, maximum of 13 RDI seminars.
Electives
You must accredit from 2 to 4 elective courses, depending on the number of RDI seminars you pass; you can choose electives, in conjunction with your advisor, from any ITESO graduate program or from other universities having academic collaboration agreements with ITESO.
