UAT Preparatoria Nuevo Laredo celebrates second anniversary

The Preparatoria UAT Nuevo Laredo has marked its second anniversary, highlighting a strategic partnership between the Universidad Autónoma de Tamaulipas (UAT) and the Nuevo Laredo municipal government. Led by Mayor Carmen Lilia Canturosas Villarreal and UAT Rector Dámaso Anaya Alvarado, the collaboration has resulted in a cumulative investment exceeding 118 million pesos.

As the region's first self-sustainable high school, the facility serves over 430 students and features 12 classrooms, chemistry and computer laboratories, workshops, and a covered sports court. The infrastructure incorporates sustainable technologies, including solar panels and a wastewater treatment system.

In addition to the high school, the municipal government has funded complementary works, such as a 11-million-peso roof for the preparatory school and a 6-million-peso covered area for the UAT Faculty of Commerce, Administration, and Social Sciences. The administration also provides various student support programs, including excellence, sports, and cultural scholarships, as well as mobile internet access for university students.
