Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to all the most common questions about ESEI International Business School Barcelona.

What modules are included in the Business Management semester?

Fall covers Entrepreneurship: Mindset, Skills and Ideation; Supply Chain and Logistics; Product and Project Management; Strategic Marketing; and Strategy & Environment. Spring covers Financial Management, International Business Law, Manage Team Performance to Support Strategy, Big Data Analytics and Business Intelligence, and Digital Business Strategy.

Is this semester suitable if I've never studied business?

Yes. No prior professional experience is required. The programme is built for university students, gap-year students, recent graduates, and young professionals seeking practical management skills. Modules introduce core business functions and then apply them through team projects and company visits.

What management skills does this semester develop?

You'll build skills across leadership, strategy, finance, operations, and entrepreneurship. Modules span supply chain, project management, financial management, business law, team performance, analytics, and digital strategy — a broad management foundation rather than a single specialisation.

How much practical exposure to real businesses is there?

Substantial. Students take part in company field visits, industry guest speaker sessions, business and innovation walks, teamwork projects, and multicultural networking activities across Barcelona. This hands-on approach shows how real organisations apply modern management and business strategies in practice.

Can I take just one semester, or should I take both?

One semester is a complete experience. Fall runs October to February and Spring runs February to June, each with its own five modules and a Certificate of Completion. Fall leans toward strategy, operations, and entrepreneurship; Spring leans toward finance, law, people management, and digital business.
