Innovating and sharing.

One of the formative axes of the University of Celaya is to promote that our students take advantage of all their abilities to innovate. To discover ideas and develop them to generate products or services that bring benefits to themselves and their community.

The effort of an entire semester was shown in the innovation project showcase, where our young people presented a wide variety of ideas such as a solar cell case to automatically charge the computer, ecological ashtrays that filter the ash to be used later as fertilizer, applications to administer medicines, convertible portable table, video blog projects for students who are looking for careers, etc.

Many of these ideas are already in operation, in the patent process or in production stages, so the community of Celaya will soon be able to benefit from the projects of our young people.
