The Universidad de las Américas Puebla is committed to educating its students to a high professional level, and to bestow them the qualities of leadership, universal ethical values, international experience and commitment to the progress of society. This is achieved, in part by the work undertaken in the three schools, comprising a wide range of academic disciplines which enhance our students’ interdisciplanary education: Sciences and Engineering School; Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities School; and Bussiness and Economics School.

One of the challenges of the short term consists on the imminent creation of the School of Health Sciences, which will include medicine, dental medicine and nursing programs. The academic programs offered by the UDLA are in the forefront of the education sector and each aims to reflect the most advanced status in its particular area, both nationally and internationally. When the UDLA designs and establishes its courses, it not only calls upon its own internal experts, but also upon specialists from outside the University who are conversant with the latest trends in their particular field.

The UDLA’s academic programs provide an appropriate balance between theory and practice, which encourages development of critical and creative thinking. At the same time, students are encouraged to take a multicultural view and are shown the effect of information technology, without the UDLA ever abandoning its commitment to society. This is how the UDLA strives to provide a complete and humanist education.

Because it is very prestigious in the formation of professionals in Chemical and Biological Sciences, and specially in the pharmaceutical area.

It offers a solid academic and practice formation, with unique courses in the country, which observe the WHO recommendations as regards to the pharmaceutical professional role at an international level.

Eighty percent of its full-time professors have a doctorate, and 75% are members of the Sistema Nacional de Investigadores (SNI) and 80% of its laboratory specialists have a scientific master degree.

It has agreements with universities in Europe and North and South America, which offer academic exchanges, courses and research stays, as well as with very prestigious Mexican hospitals (Médica Sur, Hospital del Niño Poblano, and others). There is prevailing environment of respect, critic discussion and harmony between teachers and alumni.
