The 2011–12 UNAM season was the 65th professional season of Mexico's top-flight football league. The season is split into two tournaments—the Torneo Apertura and the Torneo Clausura—each with identical formats and each contested by the same eighteen teams. UNAM began their season on July 24, 2011 against San Luis, UNAM play their homes games on Sundays at noon local time.

In addition to the Primera División, UNAM will be participating in the CONCACAF Champions League for the third time in their history. It is their first appearance in the Champions League since 2009–10 where UNAM reached the semifinals.[1] UNAM began their Champions League campaign on August 17, 2011 at home against FC Dallas of Major League Soccer.
