Welcome to IE School of Architecture and Design in Madrid, Segovia and Beyond!

Creative industries are all around us; they impact every aspect of our daily lives. They can be seen in the clothes we wear, the buildings in which we live, work and play, and the character of our cities.

The creative industries comprise a diverse array of artistic and cultural sectors, including design, architecture, fashion, gaming, visual and performing arts, film, music, crafts, advertising, media, creative writing, and museums, amongst others. These are increasingly important drivers of urban economies, in small cities like Segovia, and in large capital regions like Madrid, and beyond.

The creative economy relies on the codependency between Creating, Making, Distributing, Exhibiting and Critiquing ideas, products and processes.

In recognition of this, a shared creative philosophy informs our teaching methodology and program content, with time and space given to students to bring their ideas to life, share their work and gather expert feedback to perfect it. Our creative ecosystem reflects the wider landscape in which our students, who are future creative industry leaders, will launch their own projects.

IE School of Architecture and Design welcomes a diverse audience encompassing aspiring creatives, future leaders in creative industries, and professionals seeking advancement in areas such as architecture, design, real estate development, interior design and fashion design.

With a strong commitment to sustainability, social responsibility and design innovation, the school provides an ideal environment for individuals passionate about shaping the future of cities and contributing to the global creative landscape.

Whether in Segovia, in Madrid or on our global online campus, IE School of Architecture and Design offers the latest tech for experimentation, production and the testing of ideas. But it’s also where creative minds from different disciplines meet to collaborate.

Where the IE Community reaches out, through initiatives like the D LAB, Fab Lab, Venture Lab, capstone projects and more, to the wider community to provide real solutions for future challenges at all scales. And where, through exhibitions and events, we showcase the outstanding range of creative work developed by our students.

We are not just an educational institution; we are a public face that actively contributes to their surrounding communities.
