New and modern UMECIT Care System

UMECIT optimizes your experience: new institutional care system

Starting in June 2025, the Metropolitan University of Education, Science and Technology (UMECIT) will implement a new platform for managing student applications, as part of strengthening its student-centered service model.

This system allows you to record, manage, and track academic, administrative, financial, technological, and degree-related procedures from a single location, with traceability, order, and efficiency.

What is the new system?

This is a digital ticket management platform that organizes and centralizes all student requests, ensuring that each case is assigned to the appropriate department and receives clear responses at every step of the process. The system is available online 24/7 and can be used from any device.

Student benefits

The implementation of this care system strengthens the institutional approach based on Neocyberhumanism, where technology does not replace the human connection, but rather enhances it. This evolution responds to the principles of the UMECIT Educational Model, promoting autonomy, management of the digital environment, and conscious communication.

This advancement in the care model strengthens the continuity of an institutional service characterized by its order, proximity, and commitment to student well-being. It now evolves with a tool that expands access, monitoring, and traceability, without losing the human support that distinguishes UMECIT.

Responsible and conscious use of the care system also reflects the development of key competencies of the UMECIT Educational Model, such as self-management, digital citizenship, and effective communication. 

Advantages:

Unify procedures in a centralized and accessible digital environment.

Allows you to track your requests with documentary support.

Strengthens institutional communication with clear and orderly management.

Maintains a coherent and supported student experience.

It promotes educational innovation from an integrative perspective of technology and service.

It reflects the commitment to a modern, approachable, and student-centered education.
