History edit

The school was created on October 24, 1958, through Executive Decree 1664 by President Camilo Ponce Enriquez,[1] as a higher education institution.

ESPOL was inaugurated on Tuesday, May 19, 1959, and classes began the following Monday, May 25. Its first location was the Casona building of the Universidad de Guayaquil. The area around the historical Peñas area provided a central location in the city, and the buildings in that area were bought by ESPOL with an initial payment of 12 million sucres.

In 1969, the Quinto Guayas Battalion gave ESPOL the area between the Simón Bolívar embankment and Loja Street, where the four engineering departments were located.

In 1973, the Ecuadorian marines moved from their base in Guayaquil, and in their place, new installations for the Facultad de Ingenieria Maritima y Ciencias del Mar were constructed.

Cecilia Paredes Verduga became the vice-rector of ESPOL in 2012, when Sergio Flores Macías was the rector.[2] She was also the director of the materials testings and director of the Polytechnic's Center for Research and Development in Nanotechnology.[3]

In 2017 Cecilia Paredes Verduga was promoted to be ESPOL's rector. It was the first time since ESPOL was founded 59 years ago that it was led by a woman.[4] In 2021, ESPOL was ranked in the top 100 universities in Latin America at number 74.[5]

In 2022 Cecilia Paredes Verduga was re-elected for a second five-year term as rector by the students, teaching ESPOL staff and employees. She was elected on her manifesto on transforming ESPOL for the upcoming digital revolution. Paola Romero Crespo was elected as the vice President.[6]

Campuses edit

In 1995, ESPOL moved from its historic campus to the new campus on the outskirts of the city. The new campus was more than 700 hectares (1,700 acres) in size and included a protected forest that the university took over.

Twenty-first century edit

In 2009, ESPOL began construction of the Parque del Conocimiento (Knowledge Park), where the research centers of ESPOL will be located. Also in 2009, ESPOL built buildings to host the prepolitenico (first year general studies). In 2010, ESPOL started the construction of the new EDCON building, currently FADCOM.

Campuses edit

Campus de Peñas edit

2.5 ha in size and located near the historical center of Guayaquil, Las Peñas campus was the center of academic life. Almost everything was moved to the Gustavo Galindo campus for the 2011–2012 academic year.

Campus Gustavo Galindo edit

724 ha in size, the Gustavo Galindo Campus is the main and largest campus. Its location on the Via Perimetral highway eases access to commuting students. The central administration of the university and research centers are located there. Its infrastructure is the result of a development plan, the Plan de Desarrollo (1983–1992) as well as the creation of the new PARCON.
