INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE

Looking for an affordable, diverse and lively place to study? Madrid is a hub of culture, nightlife, innovation and much more. You’ll be in the heart of the financial district, where our innovative IE Tower is located, with plenty of tech and creative businesses on your doorstep as well. And you’ll have the opportunity to experience world-class museums, vibrant bars, music festivals and sporting events in Spain’s bustling capital.

Immerse yourself in the history and culture of a medieval Spanish town and experience the local culture first-hand on our Segovia campus, a former convent that now boasts cutting-edge facilities including our state-of-the-art Fab Lab. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Segovia is the perfect blend of old and new—and only a 30-minute train ride from Madrid!

Our students come from a wide variety of cultures, backgrounds and life experiences—with 75% of them coming from outside Spain. We’re proud that IE University’s student body reflects diversity as one of our core principles. However, what unites all our students is their global mindset and their determination to follow their passions and create a better world.

With over 6,000 students from 130 different countries, more than 105 clubs, and approximately 1,500 yearly events, there’s always something to get involved with at IE University. From sports and well-being to creativity, as well as events like our Sustainability Week and the IE Careers Forum, we ensure that you can make the most of your student experience—both during your time at IE University and after graduation.

Studying at IE University is a truly global experience. We have agreements with over 200 prestigious universities in 50 countries worldwide, allowing our students to spend a semester abroad. It’s a great opportunity not only to enrich your studies, but to broaden your cultural horizons.

We want new students to be fully prepared for life at IE University. That’s why we offer pre-university students the chance to experience practical and experiential learning with programs designed specifically for them. These include the Junior Advisory Board, which brings together talented high school students from across the globe, and the Summer Program, a two-week training program on leadership, self-awareness and communications skills.
