Host Institution: 

Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey (ITESM) campus in Cuernavaca, Morelos: The ITESM comprises Mexico’s largest and most diversified private university system, with over 96,000 students on 33 different campuses. Students on the OUS program may study at one of four campuses in the ITESM system: the main campus in Monterrey; the Guadalajara campus; the Queretaro campus; or the Cuernavaca campus either for a semester or an academic year. Each campus offers Spanish language coursework from basic to advanced levels, a variety of courses designed for foreigners, and regular university courses in a wide range of disciplines for those with sufficient Spanish language proficiency.

Campus Cuernavaca is now housed in a modern complex in a suburb of Cuernavaca. With a student population of about 2000 students (and growing!), Campus Cuernavaca offers students wishing to concentrate on Spanish language skills and Mexican culture unique opportunities to integrate in this intimate campus setting.

Location: 

Located about 60 miles south of Mexico City, Cuernavaca is called the “City of Eternal Spring” because of its mild temperatures throughout the year and its eye-catching botanical displays. With a total population of about 350,000, Cuernavaca is a haven for those wishing to escape Mexico City. Conversely, the proximity of Mexico City allows for easy day trips into the city to experience the cultural heritage, arts, and sights of the capital city.
