History

The Universidad Politécnica de Huejutla (UPH) began activities on 3 September 2012 with three educational programs and 245 students: 89 in Ingeniería Agroindustrial, 97 in Ingeniería en Energía, and 56 in Ingeniería en Logística y Transporte. It is a public higher-education institution located in Huejutla de Reyes, Hidalgo, Mexico. On 15 January 2018, students initiated a work stoppage, blocking school accesses to demand the dismissal of rector Luis Andrés Domínguez. The students concluded the stoppage on 17 January 2018 after achieving the exit of the head of the Ingeniería en Energía program, the relocation of two teachers, and the promotion of a general audit. However, the main demand—the rector's resignation—was not fulfilled. The university's campus was established on a fraction of the El Tepoxteco property, granted by the Oficialía Mayor of the state, with a surface area of 312,326.87 square meters; the agreement was published in the Periódico Oficial del Estado de Hidalgo and entered into force on 14 August 2018. The university has had several rectors, including Andrés Domínguez Alejandro (2015-2018), Eduardo Mojica Martínez (13-15 March 2018), Luis Andrés Domínguez Alejandro (from 15 March 2018), and currently José Eugenio Segura Marroquín.
