The Polytechnic University of Madrid (UPM) celebrated its 25th anniversary in 1996, although the majority of its schools were founded in the 18th and 19th centuries. Each of them maintained its independence until being grouped together to form the UPM.
It is no exaggeration to state that over one and a half centuries a great part of the history of Spanish technology has been written by the Schools of Architecture and Engineering. Syracuse University in Madrid students generally enroll in one of three schools (Aeronautica, Industriales and Telecomunicaciones) which cover most fields that any engineering student studying in the U.S. would need.
