Instituto Tecnológico de Atitalaquia

The Instituto Tecnológico de Atitalaquia (ITAt) is a public higher-education institution located in the municipality of Atitalaquia, in the State of Hidalgo, Mexico. It is part of the Tecnológico Nacional de México (TecNM) system, the country's large federal network of technological institutes, and it operates under the TecNM/Atitalaquia identity. The institute began operations in May 2010, initially using borrowed classrooms at the Secundaria Técnica No. 13 "Antonio Soto Gama." In January 2011 it moved to a space at CETIS No. 26 "Fray Diego de Rodríguez," where it remained until December of that year, and it later used the Ejidal Auditorium in the community of El Tablón. From May 2012 the institute occupied what would become its permanent campus. ITAt's educational offering is centered on engineering. By June 2013 it had three programs: Ingeniería Industrial, Ingeniería Química, and Ingeniería Mecatrónica. Its offer has since expanded to include Ingeniería en Sistemas Computacionales. The campus comprises four buildings: one for educational activities, one for the departmental academic unit, one for the laboratory unit, and a cafeteria. The institute's shield is a pentagon with a blue background overlaid on a light-gray gear, symbolizing technology; a book at the lower center represents knowledge, containing images of a molecule, an android, and industrialization, while the upper-left figure depicts the facade of the Atitalaquia church. Its mascot is the cenzontle or mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos), a bird native to the State of Hidalgo. As a public institution, ITAt has experienced student activism over campus conditions. In March 2015 a group of young people demonstrated by occupying the ITAt facilities, demanding laboratory equipment. On August 30, 2017, students closed the institution, again demanding complete facilities, including equipment for the chemical, industrial, and mechatronics engineering laboratories. The institute remains active, with its official website publishing news, academic resources, and contact information, and it participates in community and government programs in the region.

It is part of the Tecnológico Nacional de México (TecNM) system. The institute began operations in May 2010, initially occupying some classrooms of the Secundaria Técnica No. 13 "Antonio Soto Gama." In January 2011 it moved to a space at CETIS No. 26 "Fray Diego de Rodríguez," where it remained until December of the same year. It subsequently used, on loan, the Ejidal Auditorium of the community of El Tablón. From May 2012 the institute occupied what would become its permanent facilities. By June 2013, ITAt had three degree programs: Ingeniería Industrial, Ingeniería Química, and Ingeniería Mecatrónica. Its educational offering later expanded to include Ingeniería en Sistemas Computacionales. The institute has faced student activism regarding campus conditions. In March 2015, another group of young people demonstrated by taking over the ITAt facilities, demanding laboratory equipment. On August 30, 2017, students of the Instituto Tecnológico de Atitalaquia closed the institution, demanding complete facilities, including equipment for the chemical, industrial, and mechatronics engineering laboratories. The campus consists of four buildings: one for educational activities, one for the departmental academic unit, one for the laboratory unit, and a cafeteria. The institute's shield is a pentagon with a blue background overlaid on a light-gray gear; the gear represents technology, and at the lower center of the pentagon is a book representing knowledge, within which images of a molecule, an android, and industrialization are perceived. On the upper left side is the figure of the facade of the Atitalaquia church. The mascot is the cenzontle or mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos), a bird native to the State of Hidalgo. The institute remains active and publishes news and information through its official website.
