Self-assessment

Find out if ESADE is your ideal university

ESADE usually suits students who are looking for a demanding, international and highly career-oriented environment. It's an option for those who want to grow fast, participate and build a path with a global outlook from Barcelona.

This university is for you if…

  • You're drawn to strong training in business and/or law with an international focus.
  • You want a competitive but stimulating environment, with ambitious, motivated people.
  • You like learning through cases, projects and practical dynamics (not just theory).
  • You're interested in building a network and moving in an active professional ecosystem.
  • You value Barcelona as a city in which to have an international university experience.

This university is not for you if…

  • You prefer a passive model: little participation, few presentations and minimal teamwork.
  • You're looking for a more relaxed academic pace or one with few demands.
  • You're not interested in the international side or in professional networking.
  • You're uncomfortable debating, arguing and communicating ideas frequently.
