Opiniones de Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM)

I studied at the ETSIDI School of the UPM. The university itself offered a wide and deep theoretical knowledge among several technical fields, aided with few practical experiences that, if there had been more and with individual equipment, would have made the learning experience more complete. Although the installations are not the newest, they are a bit better than the average. It has a medium sized library where you can borrow laptops, books, magazines and dvds. The cafeteria is really cheap and there is always plenty of people and activity, which helps keeping the intensive study rythm required. The location can't be better: 10 minutes away by foot from the city center, with a cultural center right infront and the reina sofía museum with an incredible library 5 minutes away by foot.

Universidad que cuenta con unas buenas instalaciones, en el caso de ETSIAE, y un profesorado disciplinado y exigente con excelentes conocimientos en la materia a impartir así como mostrando un gran arte a la exposición magistral de los mismos. No obstante, considero que el programa formativo es extremadamente teórico y técnico de papel-pizarra con la tradicional modalidad de enseñanza de clase magistral en el que solo se tratan meros conceptos abstractos con pocos casos prácticos y muy poco énfasis en el uso de lenguajes de programación. Asímismo, la bolsa de prácticas cuenta desde mi punto de vista con poca variedad y cantidad de ofertas.

El haber podido estudiar el doble grado de diseño industrial e ingeniería mecánica hace que la visión de las cosas pueda ser mucho más completa. La visión técnica, el cálculo preciso, la rigurosidad de los números y las fórmulas, el estudio de los sistemas se junta con la creatividad, el gusto por lo estético y funcional, la experiencia de usuario, la visión estratégica la multidisciplinaridad en muchos programas. El diseño industrial tiene mucho que aportar en la ingeniería ya que se adapta a las visiones de empresas y clientes en un mundo tan digitalizado.
