General Information
AN INTRODUCTION TO MALAGA
A city with a rich historic and cultural tradition,
Malaga was founded by the Phoenicians
around 800 B.C. and later colonised by Iberians,
Greeks, Romans, Arabs and Christians. Its
privileged position on the shores of the
Mediterranean, its mild climate and the
friendliness of its inhabitants have all meant
that the capital of the Costa del Sol has,
throughout its history, sustained excellent
trade and cultural relations all over the world.
Nowadays, Malaga is a modern, cosmopolitan
and welcoming city with over 600,000
inhabitants, which has successfully developed
its commercial, industrial and tourist sectors.
WEATHER/CLOTHING
Malaga is a Mediterranean city with a very mild climate. Winter temperatures very rarely drop below 10ºC and in
autumn and spring the average temperature is about 20-25ºC, although evenings can be a lot cooler. Average rainfall
for the region is normally quite low. Nevertheless it can rain torrentially during the autumn and spring months.
SHOPPING HOURS
Normal opening hours: 10.00-14.00 and 17.00-20.30.
There are several Shopping Centres open from 10.00 to 22.00, for instance, El Corte Inglés (up market department
store), Centro Larios and Málaga Plaza.
Although shops are usually closed on Sundays, there are a number of shops that might be opened in the city centre.
THE UNIVERSITY
In its more than 40 years of existence the University of Malaga has taken on a major role as both principal catalyst of
the cultural life of the city and fundamental platform for future developments in the fields of technology and
research.
The University of Malaga constitutes one of the three vertices of the so-called “productive triangle” of the city,
together with the International Airport and the PTA or Parque Tecnológico de Andalucía (Andalusian Science and
Technology Park). The latter has close ties with the University due to the constant flow of ideas, highly qualified
professionals and advanced technologies.
At present the University of Malaga has two campuses, El Ejido and Teatinos, in addition to a few other buildings
located in different parts of the city.
The ultimate objective of the policy of the university regarding infrastructure is to eventually have all university
centres and services located on the Teatinos Campus.
