A group of 110 faculty members from 16 educational institutions across Baja California has been selected to participate in a specialized Semiconductor Training Program organized by the state\u2019s Ministry of Economy and Innovation. As the global semiconductor industry establishes a presence in Mexico\u2014particularly in Baja California\u2014the demand for highly skilled talent is increasing. In response, the Baja California government has launched this initiative to equip educators with the knowledge and expertise needed to foster and sustain this rapidly growing industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The program officially kicked off at CETYS University\u2019s Tijuana Campus, where the selected faculty members will undergo training until December. This initiative represents a collaborative effort between the government, the educational sector, and private industry, all working together to build a strong talent pipeline that will attract new investment to local businesses, given the region\u2019s strategic position.<\/p>\n\n\n

Speaking on behalf of educational institutions, Dr. Fernando Le\u00f3n-Garc\u00eda, President of CETYS University System, emphasized that this progress is possible only through the synergy of academia, government, and industry. \u201cI want to commend the education sector for responding to the call from the Ministry of Economy and Innovation. Through this collaboration, we\u2019re ensuring that semiconductor companies can access the specialized talent they need\u2014an investment with a significant multiplying effect.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kurt Honold Morales, Baja California\u2019s Secretary of Economy and Innovation, emphasized that the COVID pandemic highlighted the critical need to embrace the technological revolution, which spurred stronger collaboration between educational institutions and industry leaders. The goal is to transform Baja California from primarily a manufacturing base into a hub of highly skilled technical talent and, ultimately, a region where local talent becomes the owners of high-tech companies. \u201cOur vision is to evolve from being a state of assemblers to one of specialized technicians, and eventually, to entrepreneurs and business owners.\u201d<\/em>

This initiative is made possible through a partnership between the state government, Santander Universities, Emtech Institute, and Arizona State University. The program focuses on two strategic areas: semiconductor design and semiconductor manufacturing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe firmly believe that technological advancement is key to driving sustainable growth and competitiveness, leading to better opportunities for businesses, individuals, and especially university students. The semiconductor sector plays a crucial role in this technological evolution, enhancing the country\u2019s ability to attract high-level production in the context of nearshoring. We are convinced of the transformative power of education, and it\u2019s encouraging to see the educators here receiving training in such essential areas,\u201d emphasized Jaime Valls Esponda, Executive Deputy Director of Santander Universities, during the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
