The Tecnológico de Monterrey was founded in 1943 thanks to the vision of Don Eugenio Garza Sada and a group of businessmen, who formed a civil association called Higher Education and Research, A. C.
Eugenio Garza Sada characterized by being both a successful entrepreneur, and an active promoter of the development of his community, always acting in a consistent manner, with great simplicity and enormous human quality, focused on overcoming those around him, without distinction.
What the Tecnológico de Monterrey was looking for at that time was a task ahead of his time. The person in charge of carrying out this unprecedented task was the Jalisco architect Enrique de la Mora who in 1945 created the first Master Plan of the Monterrey campus.
De la Mora followed a logic of the modern movement, functionality and rationality and with that he was able to specify an ideal space for learning and sought to make the Campus as a sort of city on a smaller scale. He sought to have a series of services so that students could live holistically.
Tecnológico de Monterrey began to question his way of teaching since, similar to what happened with the campus, it was good, but insufficient to solve the challenges of the future. Hence, the Tec21 model was considered as an answer to this problem and the decision was made to adapt and modernize the infrastructure to take advantage of the model with all its potential so they started from a solid base, as was the one left by Enrique de la Mora where we sought to respond to the needs of our time with the development of a new Master Plan that would rethink the relationship of the campus with its urban environment.
The intention by realizing this study of the site is to know better which are the necessities of the customer and the space that requires to be part of the environment. Also according to the new model TEC 21 there would be some changes into the project of ATLI providing a bigger space.
