Campus and city

UPM is spread across Madrid rather than one campus. The Ciudad Universitaria (Moncloa) district hosts schools including Architecture and Aeronautics; the Montegancedo campus in Boadilla del Monte houses computer engineering and UPM's science/technology park and R&D hub, with additional South (Vallecas) and central sites. Culture is defined by demanding engineering-school identity, strong technical-society life and the resources of a major capital city, though facilities and atmosphere vary by school and the dispersed layout means less of a unified campus feel.
