EADA Business School’s Barcelona campus features modern architecture and sustainable facilities for aspiring business leaders. Student ambassador Tin Catacutan offers an insider’s perspective on this vibrant learning space.
Located in the heart of Barcelona, Spain, EADA Business School offers a cutting-edge campus that fosters collaboration, innovation, and growth. As one of Europe’s leading business schools, the facilities are equipped to support students in becoming global business leaders. In a recent TikTok tour led by student ambassador Tin Catacutan, viewers got a closer look at EADA’s vibrant learning spaces.
As Tin highlights in the video about the classrooms, “It’s very much like a meeting room. [There are] really nice classrooms that facilitate a lot of engagement among students and discussions.” (00:09)
EADA has three campuses in Barcelona, with the main campus for Masters and MBA programmes being Aragó Campus—Campus 1. The main campus is conveniently located in the city center and easily accessible by public transport. Completely remodeled in 2019, it has eight floors and 4,500m² of space. This campus includes classrooms, a terrace, studio rooms, coaching and tutorial rooms, a Knowledge & Information Center, a cafeteria, and an auditorium.
Tin notes about the study rooms, “Usually, this is where a lot of the students would work after class on their group projects or even study individually. And it’s really convenient because it’s just right beside the classrooms.” (00:18) The main campus has all the facilities students need conveniently located nearby.
The unique building, full of big windows and natural light, is energy-efficient and sustainably designed. The classrooms are equipped for hybrid, in-person, and online learning. They feature interactive whiteboards, large screens with cameras and speakers ideal for remote participation, and excellent Wi-Fi.
This provides students ample space to engage in group projects, study sessions, and interactive workshops. After class, students can easily access the city’s bustling business scene, cultural landmarks, and startup ecosystems.
Barcelona is ranked as one of the most popular student cities in Europe, attracting talent from around the globe. Spain remains a top study destination for international students.
Moreover, Barcelona’s rich cultural and professional environment perfectly complements EADA’s ethos of global business education. With multinational companies and vibrant startups all around the city, it offers an unmatched setting for career-focused students looking to combine education with real-world business experience.
Sustainability is an integral part of EADA’s mission, and the campus reflects this commitment. EADA aims to reduce its carbon footprint using energy-efficient lighting and systems while promoting sustainable business practices in its curriculum. The campus’s eco-conscious design adds to the overall experience of studying there.
Tin points out the terrace as a particularly great spot for students at EADA. She says, “Usually, during classes, we have quick breaks, and sometimes some of us go up here to get some fresh air.” (00:43)
The campus structure allows students access to open spaces, natural light, and fresh air, which creates a healthy and relaxing study atmosphere. The panoramic terrace views of the Barcelona skyline are an extra highlight.
Sustainability is also an integral part of EADA’s academic programs. For ESG (environmental, social, and governance) training, EADA’s programs rank #17 worldwide and #3 in Spain.
The Masters in Sustainable Business and Innovation equips students to lead sustainable business strategies. This program teaches students to incorporate environmental and social responsibility into business decisions. This gives them the expertise to thrive in a world that increasingly values sustainability.
Additionally, the school has partnerships and collaborations with several sustainability initiatives. EADA partners with a non-profit organization called B Lab, collaborating on several projects, including the Barcelona + B project. This project aims to transform the city into a hub for sustainable living.
These initiatives allow students to engage with local projects that bring theory into practice and have a real-world impact, a critical aspect of EADA’s mission.
One of EADA’s key strengths is its prime location in Barcelona. Barcelona is known for being an innovation and technology hub with a vibrant startup scene. It is a global business hub with international influence.
Barcelona is home to many multinational companies, startups, and innovation hubs. It is ideal for students looking to expand their professional network, gain real-world work experience, and participate in cultural exchanges. EADA’s partnerships with local and international companies allow students to engage with industry professionals through internships, business projects, and networking events.
This connection to the business world gives EADA students a significant advantage in career development.
Barcelona is also home to a diverse international community, and EADA reflects this with a student body that is over 97% international. This diversity fosters cross-cultural collaboration, helping students develop the global perspective that is increasingly necessary in today’s interconnected business landscape.
EADA is known for its focus on experiential learning, which allows students to apply what they learn in the classroom to real-world business challenges.
EADA’s strong emphasis on practical learning is evident in its wide range of partnerships with global companies. Through internships, live projects, and consultancy work, students can apply theoretical knowledge to industry-specific challenges, helping them develop the skills necessary to succeed in business.
One of the most unique aspects of the EADA experience is the Residential Training Campus in Collbató, located near the Montserrat mountains. This off-site campus provides leadership and team-building training in a natural setting, offering students the chance to partake in an outdoor training methodology to develop soft skills like communication, teamwork, and problem-solving, which are essential in leadership roles. This hands-on approach allows students to grow both personally and professionally, preparing them for future leadership positions in any industry.
What truly sets EADA apart is its holistic approach to education. EADA recognizes that business success isn’t just technical skills and personal growth. Programs like Personal Inspiration Week allow students to reflect on their career goals, life ambitions, and personal values.
In addition to developing strong business skills, EADA emphasizes the importance of emotional intelligence, self-awareness, and adaptability. These qualities empower graduates to succeed in business and lead fulfilling, impactful lives. Graduates leave the school well prepared for success in various industries, whether marketing, technology, finance, fintech, or another field.
EADA’s focus on creating responsible and purpose-driven leaders is a testament to its commitment to positively impacting the business world and society.
EADA Business School provides a world-class education that balances academic excellence with real-world application, all within Barcelona’s thriving business environment. From its cutting-edge facilities to its emphasis on sustainability and personal growth, EADA offers a comprehensive learning experience designed to prepare students for leadership roles in a globalized world.
Whether you are interested in sustainable business, innovation, or international management, EADA offers the tools, environment, and a uniquely accessible setting in the city center to help you succeed.
