Our Campus

The UIS Institute of Regional Outreach and Distance Education (IPRED) began its academic activities on February 4, 1994, with a total of 120 applicants to the programs of the Faculties of Physical-Mechanical and Physicochemical Engineering, thereby consolidating the Institute’s presence in the city of Socorro.

Today, UIS offers ten in-person academic programs—Architecture; Construction Engineering; Tourism; and Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Electronic, Industrial, Chemical, and Systems Engineering—seven distance-education programs; a Specialization in Health Services Administration; and new regionally relevant academic programs are currently under development.
