Google Cloud and the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) have unveiled a new diploma program titled “Management and Visualization of Data with Google Cloud Tools.” The program is designed to teach participants how to analyze large sets of data.
According to the Mexican Institute for Competitiveness (IMCO), 95% of businesses in Mexico plan to adopt artificial intelligence tools within the next five years. This underscores the importance of training in these technologies, which is vital for those aiming to remain competitive in an increasingly digital landscape.
This initiative addresses the growing demand for technological skills in the job market, particularly in sectors that depend on data-driven decision making.
In addition to benefiting students and professionals, the partnership also aims to foster innovation and research in artificial intelligence at UNAM, reinforcing the role of academia in the technological advancement of the country.
Applications for the diploma program are now open at https://docencia.tic.unam.mx/ . The program will be offered in a hybrid format and will span 190 hours. Applicants are required to have a background in data science, information technology, and preferably a bachelor’s degree.
The tuition fee for the first cohort is 17,065 pesos, which can be paid in three installments.
UNAM and Google Cloud have previously collaborated on various educational and technological initiatives. Andrea Escobedo Lastiri, Senior Manager of Government Affairs and Public Policy for Google Cloud in Latin America, mentioned that their partnership over the past few years has equipped over 3,000 students with cloud computing technologies.
The “Future of Jobs Report 2025” by the IMF suggests that, driven by technological advancement, green transitions, economic shifts, and demographic changes, the global job market is undergoing significant restructuring.
The new positions created will account for 14% of the current employment. Meanwhile, 92 million roles are expected to be displaced by these trends, leading to a net increase of 78 million jobs.
It is projected that technological skills will increase in importance more rapidly than any other skills over the next five years. Expertise in AI and data top the list, followed by networking, cybersecurity, and tech literacy.
