The Colegio Universitario de Estudios Financieros (CUNEF) is based in Madrid, the capital and largest city of Spain.
There are many reasons as to why this beautiful city attracts visitors (and students) every year; from the city’s cultural heritage and cuisine to its climate.
Students won’t struggle to get around with excellent transport links, allowing visitors to explore the city districts, as well as neighboring towns and villages – some of which are UNESCO world heritage sites might we add.
The pull of Madrid doesn’t end there, with various parks, music venues, museums and city square bursting with life. It makes sense why they call Madrid the city that never sleeps with all the activities to do and places to discover.
Although there are as many different "Madrids" as there are experiences and visitors, we would like to share a few unmissable spots with you. We will mark them on your map - it's down to you to fill them with memories as you pursue your interests.
The university has many strengths, but there are four that really stand out:
1. CUNEF is the university of Spanish Banking:
CUNEF was founded over 45 years ago as a Higher Education Centre affiliated to the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM) and owned by the Spanish Banking Association Foundation (Fundación AEB), set up by the Spanish Banking Association (AEB) to further the development of activities at its center
2. Over 10.000 former CUNEF students work in the main Spanish and International companies that lead their particular sectors:
More than 10,000 former students endorse CUNEF’s work and many hold senior-level positions in the banking sector, auditing companies, technology companies, the government, the main IBEX35 businesses and multinationals, and they represent one of the top assets that have emerged during CUNEF’s academic and institutional history
3. CUNEF has over 750 agreements with Spanish and international companies
4. CUNEF maintains a strong international focus to provide Spanish and international students with professional and personal training, giving them the confidence to take on professional challenges in an increasingly global world.
CUNEF has over 70 agreements in place with leading international universities, allowing degree and postgraduate students to spend part of their studies abroad. The university also welcomes international students to campus under these agreements, helping them to integrate through educational models that provide an insight into other cultures courtesy of students and lecturers.
Programs at the school are taught in both Spanish and English.
