UASLP connects students with major companies for career development

The Faculty of Sciences at the Universidad Autónoma de San Luis Potosí (UASLP) has launched the ‘Diálogos con Empleadores 2026’ (Dialogues with Employers 2026). Running from October 12 to 16, the initiative aims to bridge the gap between students and the professional labor market by identifying current market needs and professional development opportunities.

Dr. Gerardo Ortega Sarzosa, general secretary of the Faculty of Sciences, emphasized the necessity of strengthening ties between academia and the productive sector. He noted that such connections help students understand how their specific academic training, such as theoretical physics, can solve practical industrial problems.

Participating companies include Continental Tire de México, ABB Group, ZKW México, BMW San Luis Potosí, Astemo Ltd., and Musashi Auto Parts México. These organizations are sharing professional experiences and discussing the specific competencies required in today’s workforce.
