CIDESI is an engineering center, belonging to the System of Public Centers CONACyT, founded 33 years ago. It is organized in 4 associated directions, 6 thematic directions and five headquarters: Queretaro, Nuevo Leon, State of Mexico, Baja California and Campeche. In the period 2009-2015, it received 137 projects authorized by the Incentives Program Innovation, ranking in fourth place of the Public Centers. It has dabbled in nanotechnology with the design, installation and operation of pilot plants for the synthesis of TiO2 nanoparticles, metal oxides and carbon nanotubes. Nowadays, new properties in carbon fibers, lithium batteries, adhesives and polymer matrices, by incorporation of various nanomaterials, are researched. CIDESI has two Master’s programs and one PhD in the Register of the National Program of Quality Postgraduate, 21 researchers at the National Research System and it is incubator of the National Laboratory of Research in Cold Technologies, the National Aerospace Technology Centre and the Laboratory for Design and Manufacture of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS).
