The Purdue University – Tecnológico de Monterrey Undergraduate Research Program is a new undergraduate student research collaboration between the two universities, beginning in 2023. Through this program, Purdue hosts Tecnológico de Monterrey undergraduate students in their final year to support research projects with Purdue faculty across the university. These students participate in a rigorous application process before interviewing with Purdue faculty. Once at Purdue, Tecnológico de Monterrey students will typically spend one semester working directly with Purdue faculty on their research projects. The undergraduate research program creates new opportunities to engage undergraduates in meaningful research, builds bridges between Purdue and Tecnológico de Monterrey faculty, and allows students the opportunity to “test drive” graduate studies to help them decide if they wish to pursue a master’s or PhD.
If you are a Purdue faculty member interested in hosting a student from this program, please fill out this Faculty Form. If you have any additional questions about submitting a project, please contact Global Partnerships Administrator Crockett Sewell at sewellc@purdue.edu. If you are a Tecnológico de Monterrey student interested in the program, below is a list of projects for 2024-2025. Student questions may be address to Dr. Juan José Cabrera Lazarini at jcabrera@tec.mx.
