Abstract
RAMOS LARA, M. de la Paz. Figuras y entidades pioneras de la física en México. Rev. mex. fís. E [online]. 2015, vol.61, n.2, pp.93-103. ISSN 1870-3542.
This paper examines the adverse conditions faced by some intellectuals to professionalize and institutionalize the scientific research in the field of physics in Mexico. The pioneering institutions were the Faculty of Sciences and the Institute of Physics at the National Autonomous University of Mexico. The work is especially dedicated to the beginning of the second one, which marked the canons of the university scientific research and positioned itself as a fundamental institution in the development of physical sciences nationwide.
Keywords : Institute of Physics (UNAM); professionalization of physics; history of physics and education in Mexico; history of science and technology.
