The partnership between CETYS University (located in Mexicali, Mexico), Honeywell and other regional industries has led to institutional capacity-building, leadership training, workforce development and internationalization, while supporting and enhancing a collaboration agenda with government. From this collaboration have emerged self-sustained initiatives supporting STEM at elementary and high school levels, resulting in higher enrollment especially in engineering programs.
