Programme Questions

Each Short Course has a total duration of 7 weeks.

The online class schedule is designed to allow you to study around your own schedule. The flexibility of the module means that you can work on your project and assignments at any time that best suits you, as long as it fits within the deadlines set by your lecturer. You will have access to the lectures and resources 24/7, so there's no need to worry about missing out on anything due to being busy with other commitments.

As an online student, you are not required to be present at any special times, nor do you have to take classes at a specific time. You will need to make sure that you connect to the portal and complete all lectures and assignments within the deadline set by the faculty in order to maintain good standing in your degree programme.

Within each Short Course, you will need to complete a series of tasks and assignments. Your final module grade will be calculated based on the total of all assignments given in weeks 2, 4 and 6, and which account for 15%, 15% and 70% of your final grade respectively.

Yes, we regularly organise events for the ESEI community which includes online masters students. You will be invited to participate in all our events conducted online and on-campus, however, your participation in these events will not be mandatory.

"If you are looking for an internship, Barcelona is the perfect city to find one. There are many opportunities in various sectors, so you can find something that’s a perfect match for you! ESEI will post new internship offers on its digital platform regularly, but you should also attend some of the many networking events the city has to offer. It’s all about making connections and creating opportunities!

We offer assistance with finding internships with our dedicated Career Services team, who are in direct contact with companies and HR agencies and provide up-to-date internship opportunities. Our services and internship opportunities are available to you within the period of your course.

"Our Short Courses are private certificate programs awarded directly by ESEI. This allows us to create flexible programs that are suited to the current demands of the business community.
ESEI has been providing postgraduate business programs for over 30 years, and is accredited by the Generalitat de Catalunya to teach international business programs to local and foreign students. "

You'll be presented with your ESEI Certificate directly after the completion of your course. You can email us at info@esei.es if you have any specific questions about your certificate.

General Questions

You can apply to ESEI at any time during the year. However, because we have limited places in our Short Courses, we do recommend that you start your application sooner rather than later to guarantee your spot.

Our Short Courses are practical and professional courses designed to help you grow in your career. As such, we do not require a Bachelor degree to enrol. Instead, we will study your professional experience to make sure you will be able to succeed with the level of the course.

First of all, we want you to know that we want you here, too. It doesn't matter where you're starting from—if your level of English isn't as high as you'd like it to be, or if you don't have an official English proficiency score, we can help you get started with our Short Courses in English. So keep reading!

You can apply to ESEI if you have a good command of English but are lacking an official English proficiency score. If this is the case, after your admission interview, you may be required to take an English test to confirm your level of English.

If you do not have a good command of English—no worries! We'll walk with you through our English Preparation Course before the start of your Short Course. The English Preparation Course normally takes place in August and January each year, so no matter what month you're accepted into ESEI, by the time your program starts, we'll make sure that your language skills are good enough to start the Short Course!

We do not offer Scholarship opportunities for Short Courses.

If you are looking to transfer to ESEI, our short courses are the ideal opportunity for you to get a taste of what it is like to study at ESEI Barcelona. After completing a Short Course at ESEI, you can transfer to one of our Master or International MBA Specialisations. All you’ll need to do is apply to your program of choice and provide us with your full academic transcripts. We review transfer applications on a case-by-case basis.

We recommend you apply for a Tourist visa if you are a non-EU citizen planning on taking a 7-week short course.

We've made every effort to make sure that our curriculum aligns with the skills and knowledge businesses are looking for in international talent who are experts in specific business fields. And because Barcelona is such an international city, you'll be able to take advantage of the city's status as a hub of industry and business—and all the opportunities that come with it.

For European students who don't need a student visa, you can stay in Spain after completing your Short Course without any special permit. All you'll need to do is get your Spanish NIE (Foreigner Identity Number) and Social Security Number, and then you'll be good to go!

For non-European students, you’ll need to apply for a study visa (which allows you to have a longer internship period) or a work visa from your country of origin.

We know that many students coming to Barcelona looking to study a Short Course are looking for housing options—and we hear you!

Our campus facilities do not include student dorms. However, we do provide a list of student residences close to our campus where you can live as well as student accommodation agencies that help you find your ideal home in Barcelona, with attractive promotional codes specific to our students.
