The Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana [UAM] is a public university with 47 years of history, serving the urban area of Mexico City. With five campuses placed in Xochimilco, Azcapotzalco, Cuajimalpa, Iztapalapa and the younger one, Lerma, UAM is challenging how public education is implemented in Mexico. The Department of Arts and Humanities at UAM Lerma has only 4 years of creation, with barely 4 generations of students still on the classrooms, it offers the bachelors program Digital arts and Communications. We would like to introduce our department, our two groups of research, check for collaboration and exchange opportunities, within the digital + art academic ISEA community.
