Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingenieros de Caminos, Canales y Puertos de La Coruña

The Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingenieros de Caminos, Canales y Puertos is an engineering school on the Elviña campus of the University of A Coruña that focuses on civil engineering, public infrastructure, and water management. The building has modern laboratories, specialized software applications, research facilities, and an extensive technical library for students and researchers.

The school opened in October 1991 at the State Road Laboratory of Galicia before moving to the university campus. The relocation to its current location allowed for expanded infrastructure and stronger integration with the university's academic community.

The school works closely with engineering firms and construction companies, giving students real insights into their future work. These partnerships shape the learning environment and connect theory to practical challenges that engineers face daily.

The campus is easy to reach from the main university area and has plenty of space for visiting. Visitors should check in advance since access to certain areas like laboratories and research facilities may be restricted.

The school houses specialized research groups focused on railway networks, transport systems, and cartographic methods. These research fields allow students to participate in innovative projects that connect directly to local and regional infrastructure needs.
