Between 2019 and 2025, the number of students studying the Marine Infantry career at the Heroic Naval School increased by 33 percent. This career prepares cadets for operations on land or sea, such as those carried out by Semar against organized crime groups.

In this career, young people receive academic instruction mixed with naval-military training, where they learn the use of weapons, intelligence and investigation to carry out future operations against organized crime.

In addition, this profession is the one in which the greatest number of activities and subjects are taught (at least 26) in the military field, given that it is the one from which profiles oriented to the management of security operations on land, sea and air graduate.

According to Lieutenant Roberto Omar Hernández Montiel, head of the academic section of military subjects of the Marine Corps, the career has had an increase in interest as the years go by:

“When I entered, in 2008, there were 27 cadets who graduated from this career. Currently, in the different grades, there has been a significant increase in the ranks of graduates of this career and it has indeed attracted and has been of great interest to young Mexicans,” explained the lieutenant.

The participation of women has also increased in the Marine Infantry career in recent years

“The female personnel in the Marine Infantry career in recent years has increased quite a bit and that makes me proud to say it. I, personally, entered the career because I wanted to contribute my grain of sand to make Mexico a safe place,” said the student of the Heroic Naval School of our country.

“Since I was in high school, I saw all the operations carried out by the Navy, from the surface units, which is the Infantry Corps. I projected myself there in the future and here I am,” said Dayana Naomi Robles Flores, a fifth-year Infantry cadet.
