The EXATEC Awards consist of two categories:
- EXATEC Trajectory: Honors alumni whose sustained outstanding performance has positively enhanced Tec’s reputation and prestige, nationally or internationally, with a high degree of social responsibility in diverse fields, such as business, education, science and research, public service, human rights, volunteering, philanthropy, the arts or sports.
- EXATEC Merit: Honors alumni who, through their professional work, have had a positive impact on Tec and on its community. This accolade is awarded though the campuses, regions or graduate schools that participate in the calls.
