Aguascalientes, Ags.— Nine students and five professors from the Universidad Politécnica de Aguascalientes will travel to Beijing November 8–29 for advanced maintenance training in hybrid and electric vehicles, the state government reported on October 22.

The activity is part of the university’s collaboration with the Beifang Automotive Education Group. The program combines online preparation during September and October with an in-person stage in China.

For students in Mechatronics, Automotive Mechanics and Industrial Engineering, the experience will also count toward the practical placement corresponding to their sixth four-month term, according to official information.

Rector Otto Granados Franco said the training aims to expand technical skills in an international setting. This is a stay announced for November: at this publication’s cutoff, it is not presented as a completed trip or a certification already obtained by participants.
