About IPADE

Accreditations and membershipsRankings

IPADE was founded in 1967 by a group of prominent businessmen with the aim of developing future leaders with the ability to

drive social and economic growth, rooted in personal integrity, social responsibility and global vision.

Practical

All our programs use the case method.

Instead of lectures, you learn by analyzing,

discussing and solving real

business problems.

Inter-personal

Case method is built around team-

work and direct contact with

professors and invited guests.

Networking

Our students have countless opportunities

to network with their peers, graduates

and senior business leaders.

Human Touch

We offer cutting-edge business concepts that are built upon human dignity and truth.

Our MBA in a few words

It’s not a degree, it’s a lifelong project

It’s not about giving up today, it’s about constructing tomorrow

It’s not another academic intake, it’s a hand-picked community to which you belong

Mexico City & Monterrey: Two campuses, one Program

It’s not a cultural melting pot, it’s achallenging international experience

It’s not just about knowledge, it’s about skills development

It’s not about buddying up on social media, it’s about building personal relationships
