Nine students and three teachers from the institutions: Universidad de Guadalajara, Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla, Universidad de la Costa, Jocotitlan, Tecnológico de Toluca, Universidad de Manizales y Universidad Remington participated in the first academic immersion in innovation and creativity in the Classroom of Innovation and Entrepreneurship of María Cano. This is part of the interinstitutional relationship to promote their academic and research mobility through different training programs and experiential processes.

During the day the attendees met and internalized the CRIN – Creativity and Innovation model of María Cano under the design thinking methodology, which allowed them to carry out a particular and enhanced approach to the scientific method. The aim was to make use of the knowledge acquired in their research processes and the development of their academic projects with a creative and innovative approach, important inputs for the development of new research ideas, identification of problems through observation, the hypothesis statement and solution development to these problems, just as it is proposed by the CRIN model.

María Cano always opens its doors to knowledge and contact with other institutions that allow us to interact with the university community.
