85 years after its foundation and with more than 130 thousand graduates, the Universidad Autonoma de Guadalajara is currently one of the most important educational institutions in Mexico, internationally recognized. In addition, it has been characterized, among other things, by its ability to change at the pace required by new technologies in order to maintain its academic leadership, while retaining its values-based educational philosophy.  The strategic plan formulated by its current President, Antonio Leaño Reyes, will continue for the consolidation and expansion of the university with a clear focus of excellence. 
By 2035, it is sought to be the greatest reference for promoting values in the integral education of people and for promoting the well-being and progress of society, as well as for its academic quality, continuous innovation, and sustainable action, at national and international level. There is the certainty that to achieve this you need determination, freedom, and courage. This is how UAG began its history in 1935 and with that same spirit and conviction will continue to build it looking forward to the first centenary. https://youtu.be/UH7sbemVCaU
