Quality of the research projects developed in the institution has awakened the interest of the industry to collaborate with our researchers in several ways, and we have increased the number of collaboration agreements with national and international corporations trying to cover some of their particular needs. An example of the aforementioned is the agreements that we currently have with Hewlett-
Packard, Volkswagen de México, Productos Internacionales Mabe, Empacadora San Marcos, Thyssenkrupp and Mapfre, among others. Likewise we have entered into cooperation agreements with governmental agencies and study centers that have as their objective to develop new knowledge and ways to face the challenges of this century.
