SCHOOL OF BUSINESS AND ECONOMICS

ABOUT THE SB&E

The School of Business and Economics at Universidad de Los Andes was founded in 1992 and from its origins it has aimed to play a leading role in economics education and research. We are committed to producing cutting-edge research across the full spectrum of business and economics and making concrete contributions to address the world’s most pressing challenges.

Our campus is located in Santiago, at the foot of the Cordillera de los Andes. Its 52 hectares include large green areas with spaces for teaching and research, as well as spaces for university life, sports, and recreation. The infrastructure and disposition of the campus seek to promote a serene study environment, a natural environment favoring intellectual creativity and beauty with a pedagogical sense. With this goal in mind, the architecture of our university keeps the horizon’s line clear, evoking for students and scholars the need for a transcendent formation linked to the city and the world.
