Deusto Business School
speciality: Management

The DBS MBA is a master’s degree for people who really want to learn a lot in a relatively short time, to do so they use a very dynamic and fast-paced work methodology, and in my opinion very useful and effective. In addition, teamwork is encouraged almost at all times, values that are highly valued if you come from more autonomous training such as engineering.
The more purely theoretical training is also combined with real cases of entrepreneurship or experiences of successful people with high experience in the business world.

Without a doubt, quality-price, I think it is the best master’s degree you can opt for. Of course, being part of the Deusto Business School will greatly facilitate your access to the world of work, as well as a great networking network.

DBS is an exceptional university that provides a high-quality education in a supportive and personalized learning environment. Professors are passionate experts dedicated to student success. Small, interactive classes allow for personalized attention and in-depth discussions. Beyond academics, the university offers internship, and extracurricular opportunities to gain real-world experience and build connections. Overall, it is an excellent choice for students seeking a challenging and rewarding education that prepares them for future success.

I just did my master’s degree at Deusto Business School, and I would like to say that the courses are quite comprehensive and interesting, and the professors are very kind and supportive. I gained a lot of knowledge and had a great time!

If you think you already know everything in the professional and personal sphere, it is likely that you have not had the opportunity to take the Master in Business Management at Deusto Business School (DBS). In 2022, I was looking for an opportunity to grow in these areas, and I found it here.

I learned from the best teachers and gained knowledge in business strategy, finance, marketing, business model creation and ways to innovate. I also improved my soft skills, such as the ability to lead and motivate teams, as well as decision-making.

I had the opportunity to put this knowledge into practice in market simulators and, later, in reality, through my Master’s Final Project (TFM) with an exceptional tutor, during my internship at Vodafone and, finally, in my professional life.

I shared experiences with Spanish and other nationality colleagues, whom I can now call friends. And all this in the beautiful city of San Sebastian, which offers impressive architecture, beautiful beaches, delicious cuisine and very friendly people.

The DBS Master in Business Administration is a life-changing experience; don’t miss the opportunity to live it!

I studied Business Administration at the Bilbao campus and it was a great experience. The professors are highly qualified and provide students with a deep knowledge not only theoretical but also practical, teaching real business cases and sharing their experiences in the real business world. The university atmosphere is really good, I love the historical building that includes modern facilities with all the necessary services (gym, library, study rooms, big gardens). I really recommend it!

Studying the dual degree in Business Administration and Management (ADE) and Law at the University of Deusto, specifically at Deusto Business School in Bilbao, was a very enriching experience both academically and personally.

The dual degree approach allowed me to develop a comprehensive understanding of the business and legal worlds. It’s true that combining two majors isn’t easy, and the pace was intense, but also very motivating.
The faculty is known for its friendly approachability and high level of training, as many of them combine teaching with their professional activities. This brings a very practical perspective to the classes, preparing you for real life, combining theory with practice, debates, teamwork, and more.

Bilbao, as a university city, is the ideal environment to grow, learn, and enjoy an unforgettable time. It’s a city full of life, allowing you to combine your studies with pintxos between classes, University Thursdays… and the DBS’s location couldn’t be better, right next to the Bilbao estuary. Just cross the Arrupe footbridge and enjoy the impressive views, and the tram connects you to the rest of the city.

In addition, DBS boasts top-notch facilities, with fully renovated classrooms, spacious cafeterias and study rooms, a Faculty Club for group work or relaxing with classmates between classes, and best of all, beautiful gardens where you can sit and enjoy nature.

All in all, I couldn’t have a better memory of my time at this university, from which I took away, in addition to a great academic education, experiences, and lifelong friendships.

Deusto has by far exceeded my expectatives. The community both inside and outside the campus is very welcoming and kind, which makes the process of adapting to a new enviroment easier, and the classes and professors teach very useful stuff in a way I just haven’t seen elsewhere, not to mention they’re really helpful as well. It’s overall a very unique place in an unique enviroment that makes of the universitary experience all the more memorable, and I’d highly recommend anyone in the world to trust their future in Deusto.

I think Deusto is a nice place to start your career. Staff is nice and responsive. Professor lectures are great in most of the cases, they constantly make workshops and I love the program, it actually takes care and prepares their students for their future professional career. The only problem is them being inexperienced with international students and it’s a bit awkward. If you want to talk with the university support department, they don’t speak English. Also, Spanish students are weirdly distant, like if they see us as a different species, and avoids us as much as possible. I don’t know. It’s just awkward. Also, some of the workshops, most of the clubs, university activities are entirely in Spanish, making it honestly… ridiculous. I know we are in Spain and should have expected it, but we are in the English program, if the university was not prepared to only English speaking students, then why to bother? I see that they are trying their best, but still… it’s annoying that you cannot participate in anything or face rejections everywhere. I am pretty sure they will do better in 10 years, but till that time we are basically their experimental class. Funny story is that we have a group chat that is called “ADE Ingles” and people talk entirely in Spanish even if they know that there are only English speaking students. I just wish that the university and its students supported international students in their freshman year at least, while they adapt and catch up with the language. All those obstacles leave bitter associations and impressions with the language and people.

It’s a tough program, you can learn some interesting things. It didn’t open as many doors as I wished it had. I guess that, if your plan is to stay at the basque country, it could open doors. Some of the teachers are great, some others don’t make sense at all.
