Master Universitario in Business Administration - MBA

This is the only MBA Program offered at UC3M and the only one accredited by the Association of MBAs (AMBA). It is also the only Master’s degree with a double international accreditation (AMBA and AACSB).

The MBA is an 11-month, full-time program delivered in English and has a long tradition within the university as it has been offered for almost 20 years. Classes take place on weekdays, from 9 am to 5 pm, at the university’s unique campus in downtown Madrid (Puerta de Toledo). Students are highly international and have an average of over 5 years work experience. Faculty includes a balanced mix of business consultants, managers, and academics, with degrees from top international universities.

As part of the MBA, students participate in the development of high-technology start-ups. They benefit from a unique partnership with the university’s Science Park and business incubator which allows them to work side by side with high tech entrepreneurs and inventors. This partnership has been nominated by AMBA for the 2020 Business School Innovation Award.

As a public institution we are committed to equal opportunity, which is why we offer competitive fees which are low compared to private schools. The tuition cost of the MBA is €19,800 in general and €13,500 for European Union nationals. Because UC3M is a state-owned university, low fees do not imply any compromise in our standards of quality, as proven by our double international accreditation and by the hundreds of students who have graduated from our program since 2000 and who have successful professional careers around the world and in the most diverse industries.

Bachelor’s degree. Foreign applicants must possess an equivalent degree (three or more years of university studies) from an official university.
