As part of the UMH internationalization strategy, a framework agreement with the Autonomous University of San Luis Potosí, (UASLP, Mexico) has been renewed, in addition to new agreements signed for faculty and student mobility.

The UMH-UASLP agreement.

The UASLP is synonymous with San Luis Potosí, a colonial city whose historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The city, located in the center of Mexico, gives its name to the state wherein it belongs, and has more than 2.5 million inhabitants. It is one of the most historic institutions of higher education throughout Mexico, founded in 1923, and currently with some 30,000 students enrolled.

During his brief stay at the UASLP, Dr. González had the opportunity to visit the installations of the new and modern Audiovisual Communications building, the avant-garde Bicentenario Cultural University Center, in addition to the colonial building with significant artistic value housing the Rectorate of this prestigious Mexican university. Moreover, Dr. González participated in a conference entitled “Journalistic Commitment, Research and Context” that was part of the Forum of Communication, Culture and Society.”
