The CUCEI railway station is part of the Sistema de Tren Eléctrico Urbano in the Mexican state of Jalisco.[1] The station gets its name from the University Center of Exact Sciences and Engineering (CUCEI), next to the university complex of the University of Guadalajara in the Olímpica Zone; it's the last of the Second Viaduct —from the east towards the centre of Guadalajara— and it's next to the southern connection ramp with the Subterranean Section.
This station is located over the Revolución Avenue, between the Calzada Olímpica and the Corregidora street (40th st.), which both surround the whole university complex of the Olímpica Zone.
The logotype of the station is the shield of the CUCEI, which is located on the southern side of the station.
