s

The MBA program is short, comprehensive, very team oriented, and great exchange program for more diversity. It's a good value for the money. -- Finance

In my case, I enrolled in this MBA to get into the Venture Capital industry, and IE Business School is very strong in venture creation and entrepreneurship. I think I had the opportunity to enhance my experience/knowledge while getting into contact with top VC firms at the same time. The objective to move to another industry was 100% met! -- Venture Capital/Private Equity

s

Instituto de Empresa has an outstanding international student body of 57 nationalities. It's a very intense one year program that has cooperation with Wharton and many other top schools. -- Consulting

The best year of my life. -- Consulting

I thought I was going to learn more technical things, but at the end I discovered more things about myself, and how to improve. It gave me the chance of having a better view of businesses. -- Consulting

s

It's a well-rounded program with the opportunity to meet a lot of international students. But the school is still lacking in important career contacts that make a difference when alumni are looking for a job. -- Investment Banking

An MBA is a personal choice. I would recommend the school for a top one year MBA. I would not recommend it for someone aiming at a finance career. -- Consulting

Spanish culture is so kind and warm so you do not feel the pressure of the program. -- Entrepreneurship

s

I really enjoyed the structure of the program. The courses and activities were well balanced, and everyone can take part in challenging projects. -- Consulting

IE is a unique international experience not at all typical of the US perception of MBA programs. Plus it lasts only 13 months. -- Nonprofit

For me my MBA was an excellent experience that helped me to get to know a lot of industry, and understand the purpose of business and to have strategic thinking. -- Operations
