The Roberto Garza Sada Pro Magistro Award, incepted in 1995 thanks to the initiative and generosity of Doña Márgara Garza Sada de Fernández and her family, constitutes the highest honor that the Universidad de Monterrey bestows upon its faculty in recognition of their work.
Through its name, this award acknowledges the work and transcendence of Don Roberto, a leading figure of Mexico who distinguished himself for his leadership in the business world, his support and promotion of education, culture, and art, and his commitment to service and to the well-being of his community.
Since the inception of the award, UDEM honors each year the faculty members who have distinguished themselves for their excellence and the promotion of values, as well as for the impact their work has had on the university community and on society.
