The space will have 20 specialization paths, focused on Artificial Intelligence, Data Analysis, Cloud, Java and Cybersecurity, according to the head of the Digital Transformation and Telecommunications Agency, José Antonio Peña Merino.
Graduates will have a certification from Infotec (the government’s information technology research center), the public technological higher education system (TecNM) and technology companies, according to official information.
