The Instituto Politécnico Nacional Unidad Profesional Adolfo López Mateos is a campus of the national technical institute in Mexico City with buildings for classrooms, laboratories, and research. The complex has been built since 1959 with functional structures designed to support engineering and technical education.
The first buildings of the unit opened in 1959 in the Zacatenco neighborhood to meet growing student demand for technical education. The project was developed with support from Grupo ICA and has become a major center for technical and engineering training in Mexico.
