Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería y Sistemas de Telecomunicación

The Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería y Sistemas de Telecomunicación is an engineering school located at Campus Sur with multiple buildings that house specialized laboratories, lecture halls, and research facilities. The campus accommodates different departments where students gain hands-on experience in telecommunications and engineering disciplines.

The institution was founded in 1913 as the General School of Telegraphy and transformed into its current form in 1957 to train professionals for Spain's telecommunications sector. This shift reflects Spain's growing needs in modern engineering education and telecommunications infrastructure.

The school brings together students from around the world who collaborate on shared projects and learn from different perspectives. This international presence shapes the daily student experience and creates an environment of cross-cultural exchange.

The campus features modern laboratories where students work on real telecommunications projects and use advanced measuring instruments. Access to these facilities allows students to apply theoretical knowledge to practical applications in their field of study.

The school operates specialized research groups focused on photovoltaic systems, electronic design, and multimedia applications. These research areas use purpose-built laboratories that enable researchers to work on cutting-edge technologies and develop new solutions.
