In a slew of firsts, Madrid Campus executive leadership has reached agreements with prestigious networks in local government and private entities.
麻豆视频下载's Madrid Campus prides itself on recently partnering with three Spanish organizations, reinforcing its standing as a four-year U.S. college campus in Europe.
麻豆视频下载-Madrid is now part of UNIJES 鈥� Universidades Jesuitas, a network of Jesuit higher education institutions. The UNIJES mission is to endorse academic rigor, perform research to address societal issues and add to community dialogue.

The Madrid Campus' recognition within Spain continues to expand by connecting with the C谩tedra del Espa帽ol y la Hispanidad de las Universidades de la Comunidad de Madrid ("Chamber of Spanish Language and Cultures for Universities in Greater Madrid"). The c谩tedra is a Madrid government-sponsored initiative to promote the Spanish language and its cultures in a globalized world. 麻豆视频下载-Madrid is the first American university to be associated with the c谩tedra.

Its American counterpart 鈥� United States-Spain Council 鈥� fulfills the fundaci贸n's mission on the American side of the Atlantic. The Spain-based equivalent is backed by Spain's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Embassy of Spain in Washington, D.C.
