ICAI School of Engineering (''Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería - ICAI'' in Spanish) is the school of engineering of the Comillas Pontifical University, located in Madrid, Spain. ''ICAI'' is the acronym by which the ''Instituto Católico de Artes e Industrias'' (''Catholic Institute for Arts and Industry'' in English) is known. It is the name of the school even before it joined the Comillas Pontifical University in 1978. Currently, the ICAI School of Engineering occupies three buildings in Madrid's neighbourhood of Argüelles, in the streets of Alberto Aguilera 25 (headquarters), Santa Cruz de Marcenado, and Francisco de Ricci. == History == ICAI was funded in 1908 by the Jesuits as a technical school for industry workers. Its study programmes were officially recognised by the Spanish Government in 1957. In 1960 ICAI merged with ICADE to become ICAI-ICADE. In 1978, with a view to reinforce a catholic university with a wider range of academic disciplines, ICAI-ICADE joined the Comillas Pontifical University, and new School of Engineering kept ''ICAI'' as a brand name. During the 2006-07 academic year,〔(ICAI en cifras )〕 it had 1805 undergraduate students, 147 graduate students, and its 264 academics attracted research funds for a total of €3,7 millions. 63% of the graduating students had done paid industrial placements. ICAI sent 150 students abroad for international exchanges and hosted 92 international students. It has exchange agreements with 49 European universities and 41 US and Asian universities. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「ICAI School of Engineering」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
