Further Education

Information about further education in Mexico and international programs for foreign students...

Further education (Educación Superior) in Mexico consists of both private and state-run universities and further education institutes. The Subsecretaría de Educación Superior (SES) is in charge of setting the guidelines and the website provides information on the courses and further education institutions in Mexico.

Public universities in Mexico are of a high standard. Two of the most well-known and respected state further education institutes are the Universidad Autónomo de México (UNAM) and the Instituto Politécnico Nacional, both in Mexico City. The UNAM has programs for foreign students, at the Centro de Estudios para Extranjeros (CEPE). In Guadalajara, the Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara also has international programs.
