Autonomous University of the State of Morelos - Universidad Autónoma Del Estado De Morelos (UAEM)

Introduction

The origins of the UAEM date back to the 19th century, when Francisco Leyva, governor of the State of Morelos, founded the Morelos Literary and Scientific Institute, through the law of June 15, 1871, which began work on May 5 1872. It is worth saying that said institution had no opportunity to prosper, since the current president of Mexico, Porfirio Díaz —who also deposed Leyva as governor—, had the idea that the state responded more to agricultural tasks than intellectuals. The little support for the institute caused that by 1884, only the School of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine, located in Acapantzingo, remained.
