The week kicked off in style as the students got the opportunity to meet their peer guides or “amigos”. In Madrid, more than 100 international exchange students mixed with the 50 amigos at Zitty restaurant in the center of the city. A similar experience took place in Segovia’s El Sitio restaurant, as 50 students and amigos came together to get to know each other. The event served as a relaxing introduction for the students, allowing them to get their first experience of Spanish life in style—with good food and good company.

The International Mobility Team takes pleasure in welcoming you to IE University through this Orientation Session, where you will meet representatives from various offices. In this session, you will be familiarizing yourself with the IE University campus and all the resources available to you as an IE University student. This event is made possible with the help of Student Services, Campus Life, Sports and Well-Being, Counseling, the Language Center, and the Exchange Society.

This weekly event, organized by Campus Life, is a great opportunity for networking, meeting the Campus Life and Sports & Well-Being teams, and getting to know the existing clubs at IE University, while enjoying some drinks and snacks together with your fellow students!

This weekly event, organized by Campus Life, will have you singing and dancing your way into the new semester. There will be live music, food and drinks, and you will have the opportunity to meet both fellow exchange students and local IE University students.

In order to find your way around campus, the Exchange Society has helped organize a Scavenger Hunt. Exchange Students will need to navigate the campus in groups, with the aim of taking the most fun and original pictures in specified locations.

This is a great chance to learn about all the opportunities the Athletic Center has to offer, and compete against other exchange students! From team sports and events to individual fitness activities and group fitness classes, the IE Athletic Center has a wide offering to support you in your journey to study, work and live at your very best.

Incoming exchange students are invited to attend an interactive workshop to help ease them into the new culture. During the session, they will find out useful information about Spanish life, as well as tips on how to adjust seamlessly and effortlessly to the changes that come with moving to a new country.
