The purpose of the study was evaluating, in the face of the contingency caused by the Coronavirus Disease pandemic (COVID-19), the mathematics teachers knowledge and availability of technological tools for teaching remote university courses. The research adopted the quantitative approach and the design is non-experimental, transactional and descriptive. Eighty-one teachers participated and the survey consisted of 38 items with dichotomous answers, Likert scale and multiple selection. The questions were related to the remote modality, the availability of technology devices and services, and the use of technological tools. According to the results, the mathematics teachers of one south Sonora university have internet access and technological devices to distance teaching, they know or have used virtual classroom platforms and applications that allow communication with students. The areas of opportunity that were detected are the distance courses design, the online exams and didactic material preparation, as well as the implementation of tools that promote collaborative work.
