Tecnológico de Monterrey in Hidalgo was born from the dream of a group of visionary entrepreneurs in the 1970s, who were committed to their region and sought to contribute to its development by expanding and improving educational options in the state.
Thus, on August 8, 1980, the Hidalgo Unit of Tecnológico de Monterrey was inaugurated. At that time, the facilities were housed in a rented house on Manuel Carpio Street in downtown Pachuca. By 1982, the campus had moved to its current location and offered a 2-year high school program. The student population was 119, served by 17 administrative staff and professors, who, under the leadership of Ing. Eudaldo Rubio, laid a solid foundation for the institution.
By 1996, we already had a main auditorium, a gymnasium with a capacity for 1300 people, and a water treatment plant, serving more than 750 students and three student groups with offices, music rooms, and photography studios.
In 2005, we celebrated 25 years of Tec in Pachuca, Hidalgo. That year, the main entrance, the perimeter wall, and the professional laboratories were inaugurated.
This marked the beginning of Tec de Monterrey in the state. Now, 39 years after its founding, the campus continues to grow and innovate its facilities to be the best private university in Hidalgo. In recent years, the university’s Student Center was built, the basketball court floor was renovated, and high-tech, mobile classrooms were designed as part of the Educational model. Looking ahead to future challenges, Tec Hidalgo campus continues to reinvent itself to be an educational benchmark in Pachuca.
