IESE Business School

1. 1

   The short answer

   IESE Business School is the graduate business school of the University of Navarra in Spain. It suits students who want a business school with MBA and executive study options across multiple international campuses.

2. 2

   What you can study

   Students can apply for a two-year Master of Business Administration degree, two Executive MBAs, master’s degrees, and executive education courses. The school also has campuses in Barcelona, Madrid, Munich, New York City, and São Paulo, which may matter for students choosing where to study and where parts of a programme may be based.

3. 3

   Getting in

   International applicants should check the official website for entry requirements, deadlines, programme-specific documents, and whether the course they want is taught at the campus they plan to use. The school offers MBA, Executive MBA, master’s degrees, and executive education, so the application process can differ by programme.

   What it costs

   The university does not publish a tuition fee range; confirm the current cost with its admissions office. Living costs will depend on the city and your housing choices, especially if you study in Barcelona, Madrid, Munich, New York City, or São Paulo.

5. 5

   Coming from abroad

   The language of instruction is not published, so confirm this on the official website before applying. Also check visa needs, the campus location for your programme, and whether the degree or executive course runs in Barcelona or at one of the other campuses outside Spain.

   How it compares

   Spain has 98 universities, so IESE sits in a crowded national higher education market. What sets it apart is its focus on graduate business education and its network of campuses in several countries, which may suit applicants looking for an international business-school setting rather than a general university.
