This is a vulnerable region that boasts an important source of natural resources and a great social, economic and technological backwardness that is directly related to the educational aspect. A master's degree has been designed with three lines of work, taking into account the strengths of the CIIDIR-Oaxaca: Design and sustainable technologies to the building, Security and food safety, and water resources. The aim is to encourage the transfer of knowledge and technology, with methodologies that allow promoting the work of collaborative multi and interdisciplinary and linking with the professional sector. The curriculum design responds to the educational model of the IPN, this model is characterized as facilitator of professional skills and too responds to the model of social integration.
