Universidad de Ecatepec

What Universidad de Ecatepec does

Universidad de Ecatepec (legal entity: Universidad Educativa de Ecatepec, S.C.) is a private higher education institution headquartered in Ecatepec de Morelos, Estado de México, Mexico, and part of the NACER GLOBAL educational group. The university operates three campuses — Agricultura (main campus, undergraduate and graduate), Vía Morelos (health-sciences focus), and Nueva Prepa UNE (high school) — delivering a portfolio spanning preparatory education (bachillerato), over 20 licenciaturas across business, law, engineering, health sciences, and digital disciplines, 14 master's programs in law, administration, education, healthcare administration, marketing, and project management, and a Centro de Idiomas offering English, French, German, Portuguese, Japanese, and TOEFL certification. All programs carry RVOES accreditation from Mexico's Secretaría de Educación Pública.

The institution's core technical platform is "Live Digital Education," a proprietary live-streaming system in which every classroom is equipped with WiFi, 55-inch flat screens, Logitech Brio 4K cameras, laptops, HD microphones/speakers, and Rally 4K cameras in laboratories, enabling 100% real-time broadcast of classes for in-person (escolarizada Monday-Friday), executive (Saturday-only), and online modalities. The platform integrates with Google Classroom, Moodle LMS, Google Forms, Google Drive, and YouTube for academic content delivery.

The business model is recurring monthly tuition and fees (subscription-style) per academic period across three modalities, with revenue augmented by scholarships (e.g., a 40% enrollment scholarship on all licenciaturas), language-center services, and continuing post-enrollment support via a Jobsora job-board partnership. Customer acquisition runs through a direct-to-consumer funnel anchored by a WhatsApp contact button, an external tuition calculator (calculatucolegiatura.com), organic social (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube), and SEO-optimized program pages (35+ landing pages), with on-campus enrollment supported at three physical locations.
