The history of the University of Málaga starts in 1968, with the creation of the Association of Friends of the University of Málaga (Asociación de Amigos de la Universidad de Málaga).
In recent years, UMA developed an expansion plan regarding fields of study and infrastructure. Thus, after the Campus of Ejido was established, the University expanded towards the western district and founded the Campus of Teatinos, which is initially composed of School of Medicine, School of Humanities, and School of Science. Now the Campus has gradually developed and it offers a full range of academic studies and services.
UMA has two campuses in Málaga. However, some of the University’s activities are carried out in other locations spread in the city and province. Thus, this network of knowledge is present in key points such as the city’s business center, Andalusia’s Technology Park, and in other cities such as Ronda and Antequera.
Located in the center of Málaga, the campus at Ejido houses the Faculties of Economic Science, Architecture and Fine Arts.
At present, most of the faculties of the University are located on the Teatinos campus, including the Department of Communication Science, Education Science, Law, Computer Engineering, Telecommunications Engineering, Tourism, Science, Philosophy, etc.
