ESEI offers Bachelor Degree programs in International Business Management and International Marketing Management with concentrations in management, marketing, finance, economics and law.

ESEI's faculty and student body is very diverse, coming from around the globe. The international atmosphere adds to the learning environment and students' experiences. Approximately 150 students are enrolled in full-time degree programs. Small class size and close student-teacher interaction creates an atmosphere of learning, discussion and personal growth.

The following KEI concentrations are offered at ESEI Business School.
  • International Business, Law & Diplomacy
  • Spanish Language & Business
  • Barcelona Internship Program


ESEI combines European and American teaching practices. You can expect the teaching style to be similar, but not identical to your university in the USA. Most classes will have a short syllabus. Professors utilize lecture, discussion and/or hands-on teaching styles, depending on the subject. All courses are taught in English.

Assessment methods may also differ from universities in the USA. ESEI professors may test students orally (as opposed to passing out written exams); students from the same class may be asked different questions on their exams, and your final grade may be based on just one or two assignments and/or exams. Marking at ESEI is based on the British system, although the American system may also be used in some classes.
