The National School of Cinematic Arts (Spanish: Escuela Nacional de Artes Cinematográficas (or ENAC), formerly the University Center for Cinematographic Studies (Spanish: Centro Universitario de Estudios Cinematográficos, CUEC), is the film school of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). Founded in 1963, was influenced by the Nouvelle Vague and by the First Contest of Experimental Film organized in Mexico that year.

In 42 years, CUEC has had as students several of the main Mexican filmmakers.

ENAC produces almost 100 short films a year, many showing at international festivals.
