Infrastructure

Library

The Institute recognises the high value that the library has, both in the permanent training of teachers and in the scientific training of students. Therefore, it annually invests large sums in the acquisition of scientific works that are available to the entire school community.

Computer Labs

ISPGAYA has in its facilities 7 rooms designated as Computer Laboratories, providing more than 70 computers.

The computer labs are open to the entire ISPGAYA community, and students, teachers or employees may use any computer, as long as it is not in a room where a class is taking place.

The computers are networked, and users can access the different servers and services provided by ISPGAYA, including free access to the Internet.

Digital and Analogue Electronics Laboratory

This space is intended for practical work on digital and analogue electronics discretely and using microprocessors, microcontrollers, FPGAs, among others.

This space is equipped with workbenches equipped with instrumentation (oscilloscope, signal generator and power supply).

It also has a set of didactic kits developed internally that allow support for practical work and projects.

Laboratory of Electrical Machines and Electrical Installations

This space is intended for practical work on electrical machines, electro-pneumatic drives and electrical installations.

This space has workbenches equipped with different types of electrical machines, speed variators and specific instrumentation.

It also has a model for teaching electrical energy systems in the medium voltage transmission and energy distribution component, as well as an ITED/ITUR experimentation panel and a panel for conventional assembly and testing of electrical installations, as in the incorporation of solutions of home automation with equipment resulting from partnerships with entities in the sector that are partners of ISPGAYA.

Automation and Electro-pneumatics Laboratory

This space is intended for practical work in automation and electro-pneumatic drives.

This space is eequipped with workbenches for programming practices of programmable controllers of different families, these controllers being equipped with Digital and Analogue IO cards and special cards.

It also has test cells and industrial equipment to support practical work and projects.
