The School of Social Sciences is a young, dynamic and innovative school that aims to be the reference in higher education in the field of Business, Law and Education.
The School of Social Sciences seeks to train ethical and socially committed professionals becoming a reference for quality in their fields of knowledge thanks to their high level of qualification, their international projection, their leadership, their ability to innovate and their entrepreneurial spirit.
An international perspective is one of the hallmarks of each one of the degree programs that comprise our School’s academic offer.
Such internationality is present in the classroom, where our students share their experiences and knowledge with colleagues and professors from all continents, thereby allowing them to gain a multicultural perspective of the education they receive, in addition to developing the skills required to achieve professional success.
Our international perspective is a feature of our Bachelor’s Degrees.
The School offers all its degree programs in a bilingual format, where Spanish and English coexist side by side, as well as programs taught exclusively in English. The objective is none other than to adapt the profile of our graduates to the needs of a global and multicultural society.
Of course, this international perspective goes beyond the clas- sroom, with short- and long-term studies abroad in more than forty countries where our students also have the opportunity to carry out internships, or have the chance to study for a dual degree in some of the most prestigious universities in the world. So is it quite usual to find our students studying or doing internships in Los Angeles, Liverpool, New York, London, Sydney, Berlin, Chicago, Shanghai or Rio de Janeiro, to name but a few.
Erasmus agreements, along with our membership to the Laureate Network, mean that our students have the best international acade- mic offer available in Spain.
Our focus on developing an entrepreneurial spirit is yet another element that is making our young School become a reference in the field of social sciences.
In a complex working environment, the value of entrepreneurship in all fields of knowledge has become a sound basis for professional success.
Our students will receive the training and tools to develop their innovative skills: encouraging their entrepreneurial ability from the beginning of their studies to completion of their graduation project.
We aim to train leaders that are able to create and implement their own business ideas, whether in the fields of business, law or edu- cation: professionals that see the road to success through their own ideas and abilities.
The School accompanies these students in the search for new ideas, in their development as well as implementation: we train the entre- preneurs the market is looking for.
All of this is designed so that your education and ability to succeed do not depend on your age. You may achieve a university education with an officially-recognized Bachelor’s Degree programs by stu- dying weekend hours, with class schedules adapted to your current professional demands.
Now nothing can stop you from receiving a university education.
The campus, faculty and teaching methodologies are designed to permit the lifelong learning of professionals who combine their career with attaining an officially-recognized degree.
Upon finishing your Bachelor’s Degree, the School will help you complement your studies through IEDE Business and Law School, our graduate school that offers campuses on three continents, in Madrid, Shanghai and Santiago de Chile, where you can continue to train in a multicultural and innovative environment.
