Imagine starting your university journey in the cobblestone charm of Segovia or the buzzing streets of Madrid—then graduating under the iconic red-brick arches of New York City or the historic halls of Brown University. For students at IE University, this is more than a dream. It is a real, tangible path designed for those ready to race ahead in a globalized world.
The world is shrinking, competition is rising and careers today are launched across borders, not just boardrooms. Choosing to study in Spain and the US with IE University’s exclusive programs could be the spark that lights a lifelong international career.
IE University: Where global minds take root
IE University has always attracted adventurous, ambitious students who see education as more than a local affair. With campuses in Madrid and Segovia, IE’s bachelor’s programs weave business, technology, law and liberal arts into a powerful, practical education. Students sharpen critical skills, embrace international perspectives and prepare to adapt to industries that change faster than a trending hashtag.
But what if you could take that foundation and amplify it—by earning two degrees on two continents?
For students in select programs like business administration, applied mathematics, computer science and more, the door to study in Spain and the US is wide open.
Brown University’s PRIME program: Innovation, entrepreneurship and Ivy League prestige
Through a unique partnership, IE University students can spend their final year at Brown University in the US, earning both their bachelor’s and a master’s degree in just five years. After four years in Spain, students head to Brown’s School of Engineering to pursue a Master of Science in Innovation Management and Entrepreneurship (PRIME) — a STEM-certified program built for the next generation of business and tech leaders.
At Brown, learning leaps from lectures to real-world experience. Students tackle finance, strategy, marketing and leadership, and polish their skills with career coaching and internships. They even take a week-long deep dive into the beating heart of tech innovation: Silicon Valley.
Opportunities for cross-registration at Harvard or Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) add even more layers to this rich academic journey. The chance to study in Spain and the US with these prestigious institutions offers a launchpad few students ever access, and it happens faster than you might think.
