Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería Agronómica, Agricultural engineering faculty at Isla de la Cartuja, Seville, Spain.
The School of Agricultural Engineering is a higher education institution on Isla de la Cartuja in Seville, housed in a former Expo 92 exhibition building that was converted for teaching and research. The facility includes modern laboratories, specialized equipment for agricultural experiments, and spaces dedicated to hands-on learning in crop and livestock management.
The school was established as part of the University of Seville in 1989, expanding the university's technical education programs in agricultural sciences. Its relocation to the Isla de la Cartuja after Expo 92 provided new purpose for the exhibition site and modern facilities for research and teaching.
Students experience the link between classroom learning and actual farming practices through field visits to regional olive groves and working agricultural sites. These trips help them understand how technical knowledge applies to the daily work of farmers across the region.
The building is located on the Isla de la Cartuja and is accessible by public transportation, with good connections to other parts of Seville. Since it is an active academic institution, visitors should check ahead to confirm whether visits are allowed or if special arrangements are needed.
Research teams here focus on sustainable farming methods and water-saving solutions specifically developed for Mediterranean climates. This work addresses challenges that are central to farmers working in dry and warm regions.
