Facultad de Ciencias Económicas y Empresariales

Welcome to the Facultad de Ciencias Económicas y Empresariales de la UAM!

This webpage provides information about the study programmes offered by the Facultad de Ciencias Económicas y Empresariales and the services available at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. Although this information is very detailed, it cannot do justice to the experience of studying at this Faculty and taking part in campus life.

The Faculty turned 50 in 2018. Far from experiencing a mid-life crisis, it has become even more dynamic and enterprising. A clear sign of vitality is the growing interaction with very diverse economic and entrepreneurial institutions. All students can perform well-paid internships in business; 90% of the students find work within the first year after receiving their graduation; professors engage in important research and consulting projects that enable community to gain better knowledge and experience of how the economic-business world functions.

Course offerings are extensive and student preferences very diverse. If we had to name a common denominator in the Faculty, it would be the interest in economic-business phenomena, entrepreneurial spirit, analytical capacity, a passion for business, and practical common sense.

Another sign of our dynamism is the progressive internationalization of our Faculty. The frame agreements signed with universities worldwide permit one third of the students to complete part of their degree programme in other countries. The European Higher Education Space has contributed, among other things, to making classes more participatory and bringing course contents closer to employers’ demands.

Infrastructure is no less important in university life. The campus is far enough from Madrid to avoid the pollution but enjoys excellent publication transportation to the centre of Madrid. In recent years, the UAM has constructed new buildings and restored old ones. Today, the campus possesses modern libraries, computer labs, sports installations, cafeterias, residence halls and many other assets waiting to be discovered.
