ESADE Law School once again named Spain's top private law school
ESADE Law School has consolidated its position at the top. In a new ranking by El Mundo, published this Thursday, ESADE was once again named the #1 private law school in Spain. According to El Mundo, ESADE excels at training jurists capable of meeting the real needs of law firms with a global outlook. The newspaper also noted that the school currently has 190 places available to new law students.
According to the ranking, the top four Spanish universities for studying law are the Autonomous University of Madrid, Carlos III University, Pompeu Fabra University and ESADE Law School (URL).
Eduardo Berché, Dean of ESADE Law School, commented: “Our showing in the El Mundo ranking fills us with satisfaction and pride. It encourages us to continue working hard and enthusiastically to ensure the excellence of our school, which has a clear international outlook and a growing focus on the figure of the global lawyer, and which offers pioneering double-degree programmes such as the Bachelor in Law & Global Governance. He added: “Being recognised as the best private law school in Spain highlights the merit of our team: the excellent professors and magnificent professionals in the various areas – international, admissions, careers, marketing, administrative staff, etc. – whose day-to-day efforts have allowed us to receive this prestigious honour.
This new recognition comes on the heels of ESADE’s outstanding performance in other international rankings. The UK’s prestigious Financial Times, for example, has ranked ESADE among the world’s top law schools for several consecutive years. The newspaper’s annual international ranking – which includes 98 schools, only four of which are in Spain – recognises ESADE alongside such renowned American institutions as Georgetown and Harvard.
In the report accompanying its new ranking, El Mundo notes that, for prospective students, “deciding where to study is just as important as deciding what to study. The newspaper added: “Future university students are becoming increasingly vocational.
