FACULTAD DE PSICOLOGÍA BUAP

What FACULTAD DE PSICOLOGÍA BUAP does

The Facultad de Psicología BUAP is an academic unit of the Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla (BUAP), a public state university in Puebla, Mexico, governed by the Secretaría de Educación Pública. It delivers undergraduate and graduate psychology education and operates community-facing clinical services, primarily serving students in the Puebla region and the general public seeking affordable mental health care.

The Faculty's core academic offerings include two undergraduate programs (Licenciatura en Psicología and the newer Licenciatura en Psiconeurodesarrollo), two master's programs (Diagnóstico y Rehabilitación Neuropsicológica, and Psicoterapia), and a diploma program in neuropsychological approach to learning problems. Its clinical arm, SECLIPSI (Servicio Clínico de Psicología), has operated continuously since October 1984 across five locations in Puebla city and Teziutlán, providing psychotherapy and neuropsychological assessment. Specialized clinical infrastructure includes a Cámara Gesell observation room equipped since 1984 with PRONAES/CONACYT funding. Additional sub-brands include PAPEE (psychosocial support for pregnant students), the Programa de Psicología y Género, and an Organizational Development Consulting Service.

The business model is primarily that of a government-funded public university cost center: undergraduate education is tuition-free, and SECLIPSI charges a nominal $30 MXN per therapy session (initial interview free) to cover operational costs. Commercial revenue streams are limited to the consulting service and continuing education programs. The Faculty has no external investors, no funding rounds, and no disclosed revenue, operating under public-sector oversight with ~20 listed staff members across coordinator and committee roles.
