Located just minutes from the city center and other points of interest such as the mountains and the main train station, the beautiful campus provides students an authentic Spanish experience and the opportunity to explore all of Europe and northern Africa. 

Founded in 1996, the university aims to provide students with the knowledge and skills to serve society and contribute to the further expansion of human knowledge through research, which plays an integral role in the development of man and mankind.

Tailored Classroom Experience

UCAM strives to ensure that its MBA students receive personalized attention that fits their needs. UCAM staff value the development of personal relationships in the classroom. Each student benefits from a personal tutor and small class sizes. Classes are designed to meet the needs of society as well as the interests of students. 

Learning in Action

UCAM empowers students to develop their own real-world skills. The campus’ top class infrastructure, including its labs and studios, coupled with practical course subjects prepare students to put the acquired knowledge into action. A key part of a student's educational experience is to complete an internship in a public or private institution to receive a taste of their future field of expertise. UCAM offers more than 50 research groups that work in close collaboration with enterprises such as Coca Cola, Danone, Vodafone and Siemens. 

Beyond Knowledge

As a Catholic institution committed to the church, UCAM does more than provide top-quality education. The transmission of values is an important pillar of the university and is integral to students' lives after graduation from their MBA program. Not only will they become great professionals, but they will also develop strong personal ethics and empathy. UCAM provides opportunities for personal development through volunteering events, congresses, seminars, research projects and religious services.
