Centers and Chairs
BackOn September 2007, the European Commission awarded to IE a Jean Monnet Chair, the holder of which will be Professor José M. de Areilza. This Chair is part of the European Commission’s Jean Monnet Program, which honours the memory of the founder of the European Communities and first President of the European Commission. The Jean Monnet Program was launched in 1990 and is present in approximately 700 universities and in more than 60 countries.
The objective of the Jean Monnet Chairs is to stimulate teaching, research and reflection in the field of European integration in undergraduate and postgraduate studies.
IE is the first Spanish business school to obtain a Jean Monnet Chair. The new Chair will organize seminars and conferences as well as debates and discussions about European issues of interest to European citizens and European undertakings. The debates will also take place through the weblog created in 2006 by José M. de Areilza, http://blogeuropa.eu/
