Follow us at on Twitter and on Instagram. The University of Texas at San Antonio Mexico Center was officially established in October of 2005 to promote greater knowledge and understanding of Mexico and U.S.-Mexico relations. The Mexico Center is an umbrella organization that connects existing, related expertise within UTSA through cross-disciplinary collaboration o

n research projects and activities. UTSA provides an outstanding location for a center that addresses crucial issues of how U.S. and Mexico policies and practices affect families and communities on both sides of the border. As one of the largest institutions in The University of Texas System, UTSA is a key border/South Texas center of education, prominent for its inclusion of Hispanic faculty, staff, and students. An Hispanic-serving institution, UTSA provides education opportunities for large numbers of historically underrepresented students. Sixty percent of UTSA’s student body are from underserved populations, 44 percent of which are Hispanic. To accomplish its goals, the UTSA Mexico Center collaborates with several Mexican or Mexico-related organizations and institutions both in Mexico and the United States. Among them are the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), the Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara (UAG),the Universadad Veracruzana, Universidad Autónoma del Estado de México (UAEM), the University of Monterrey, El Colegio de la Frontera Norte (COLEF),Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo Leon (UNAL), Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla (BUAP), the Universidad de Chapingo, the Instituto de México in San Antonio, Asociación de Empresarios Mexicanos (AEM), and Mexicans and Americans Thinking Together (MATT.org).
