Business
Specialisation Diplomas
ESEI has over 30 years of experience designing and delivering cutting-edge business programmes that enhance the uniqueness of all its students. Our belief is that following and pursuing one’s passion is the key to happiness and success, so we have launched some specialised business diplomas that reflect three key markets and trends of today.
If you have completed the L4 and L5 Diplomas in Business with us, you will have the opportunity to complete an additional 1-year specialised programme in one of the following areas:
These programmes offer students the opportunity to specialise before the completion of bachelor-level studies. They provide students with the chance to learn and gain experience in their interest area just two years after the completion of high school, thus allowing them to delve in sooner and start developing their career early on. This in turn helps students stand out from the crowd in a competitive global job market.
If you decide to do the online Bachelor top-up programme with Anglia Ruskin University, you can complete one of ESEI’s business specialisation diplomas alongside it, as an ideal complement. The Business Specialisation programmes are delivered on-campus by ESEI faculty and diplomas are issued privately by ESEI.
If you wish to study the ESEI L4 and L5 Diplomas and Business, the ARU Bachelor top-up programme with ARU and an ESEI Business Specialisation Diploma, your study pathway would look like this:
Year 1: ESEI L4 Diploma in Business
Year 2: ESEI L5 Diploma in Business
Year 3: ARU Bachelor top-up (ONLINE, self-study)
+ ESEI Business Specialisation Diploma (ON-CAMPUS in Barcelona)
The Business Specialisation Diplomas are an optional add-on, and can be studied as a stand-alone third year programme OR alongside the UK top-up programme.
“After studying the first two years of my bachelor at ESEI in Barcelona, I went to Anglia Ruskin University to finish my bachelor degree in their top up program, which was in Cambridge (UK) and lasted a year. The University was much larger than ESEI but there was a good combination between lectures and seminars. In the lectures there were large groups and in seminars it was focused on small working groups. I really liked the "UPCD modules" the school offers, which are are extra non-core courses you can follow. I took one in Leadership and Negotiation and learnt a lot. Aside from the academic programme, it was easy to find a room because ARU has many different campus accommodation options. Furthermore, there are over ten different kinds of sports teams you can join and during the first two weeks of university you can try out what you like. I joined the rowing team which was a lot of fun and a great way to meet people. I would definitely recommend the ARU Business Administration top up year over in the UK because the level of education is very good and there are so many additional opportunities.”

AWARDING BODY
Level 4 and Level 5 Diplomas will be awarded by ESEI, though these are also fully recognized and authorized by the Catalan department of education. This ensures that students, parents, teachers and employers worldwide can be confident that qualifications and assessments meet rigorous quality standards.
For students who have completed Level 4 and 5 ESEI diplomas, they will have the opportunity to go on to complete an official bachelor top-up programme (1 year) that will give them a degree in Business and Management with the Univeristy of Anglia Ruskin in the UK, thanks to a pathway partnership between this prestigious university and ESEI. This programme is delivered, administred and issued by ARU, not ESEI.
If students decide to take this pathway, they will receive a valid UK degree, which is recognized and accepted by employers and institutions around the world.
