It's fine but it need a new study organization.
I learned many new things in my degree and I am very grateful for that, nevertheless I feel like the study plan was outdated. I took a large number of subjects that were very interesting but, in my personal opinion, I think that they were not the best choices for a Energy degree. I would like to learn more about climatization and electricity, wich is the main reason why I am looking for a new master's program.
Very interdisciplinary
Electronics, Robotics and Mechatronics Eng. is a great Major in University of Málaga. Actually, it is considered to be one of the best undergrad programmes in this university. I really liked being a student of this degree. Although acceptance rate is low and the subjects are extremely demanding, specially the first two years, it does pay off: you get a big picture of all robotics and mechatronics engineering branches at a decent depth. Nonetheless, some content is not updated and the faculty could have a better connection with industry (although the unemployment rate of this degree is around 0%). I have experienced myself the evolution of the latter aspect, since there are increasing collaborations between local and international engineering companies and university. If you happen to stay active inside university culture, you will get the best out of the study programme and University of Málaga's teachers and facilities.
Good university
This university is good, but not the best. It has a lot to improve, specially in the Biology bachelor's degree. But you do get a good education.
