IE University was founded in 1973 by a group of visionary entrepreneurs with a shared mission: to reinvent higher education.
Since its inception, the university has evolved significantly, now offering a wide range of impact-driven programs across six distinct schools. With a strong commitment to the pursuit of knowledge and a focus on sustainability, IE University aims to drive positive change through education, research, and innovation. The institution designs bachelor’s programs that nurture young minds into the leaders of tomorrow, underpinned by core values of diversity, innovation, entrepreneurship, and the humanities.
IE University's programs go beyond the acquisition of knowledge. They are crafted to transform students' mindsets, support their personal growth, and empower them to shape the future careers they aspire to.
