What Centro de Cómputo | FES Cuautitlán does

The Centro de Tecnologías en Cómputo y Comunicación (CTCyC) is an internal departmental unit of the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), operating within the Facultad de Estudios Superiores Cuautitlán (FESC) in Cuautitlán Izcalli, Estado de México. Tracing its origins to the establishment of the FESC campus in 1974, the center functions as UNAM's centralized technology department for the faculty, staffed by 54 employees who deliver computing, networking, and telecommunications services to the FESC academic community — students, faculty, researchers, and administrative staff across disciplines including physical-mathematical sciences, chemical sciences, administrative/social/humanities sciences, and agricultural sciences.

The CTCyC delivers four core service lines under one administrative unit: Cursos (ICT and computing training courses for the university community and external public), Soporte Técnico (on-site technical diagnosis and support for academic users and equipment), Redes (administration of the faculty's data network, including the PC PUMA service and RED CABLEADA wired infrastructure), and Telefonía (fixed telephony infrastructure integrated with the institutional network). The underlying technology stack consists of on-premises computing workstations, campus-wide wired and wireless data networks, fixed telephony systems, and internet access — all operated as part of UNAM's broader institutional IT footprint.

As a government/state entity within Mexico's largest public university, the CTCyC operates with no commercial revenue model. Operations are financed through the federal public budget allocated to UNAM, and services are provided free or on a subsidized basis to the internal community. Service delivery is exclusively on-site walk-in at the Computer Center building (upper floor, Km 2.5 Carretera Cuautitlán-Teoloyucan, San Sebastián Xhala) during Monday–Friday 09:00–20:00 hours, with supplementary contact via telephone (55 5623 1866/1833/1860) and WhatsApp (55 1655 3972). Outreach is limited to an institutional website and a Facebook page; no external customers, commercial pricing, sales motion, or independent ownership structure exist.
