1986年，作为对工程师更有效教育需求的回应，Tecnologico de Celaya学院开设了一个新的硕士课程。新课程要求学生在工业领域学习一年，课程以功能设计为重点。作为该工业/学校联合硕士项目的延续，该项目旨在培训设计工程师，建议通过完整设计的概念将制造业纳入其中。

In 1986, as a response to the needs for more efficient education for engineers, a new master's program was opened in the Instituto Tecnologico de Celaya. The new program required the students to spend one year in industry and it was based on an emphasis in functional design. As a continuation of this combined industry/school master's program to train engineers in design, it is proposed to evolve to include manufacturing through the concept of complete design.
