- © 2017 IEEE. Today, the new generation of students are learning in diverse ways. Thus, they are taking advantage of the modern technological devices, information provided mainly by the Internet and the use of current Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). Therefore, learning methods and infrastructures need to evolve in order to consider these technologies and response to emergent educational challenges of the world. In this sense, Tecnologico de Monterrey proposes an Open Innovation Laboratory as the main resource to manage that information, enhance interactive collaboration in the learning process and provide the adequate training to students through the implementation of new learning models and technological equipment. These initiatives are fundamental to develop technical skills and experience in students, which allow them to achieve greater productivity, be more competitive and support the development of a new generation of products and opportunities in the manufacturing sector.
