IE also has a virtual campus, a novelty not many universities around the world can boast about. The Madrid campus is on the María de Molina street, in the neighbourhood of La Castellana, which belongs to the Salamanca district. This is one of the most important commercial areas of Madrid, where a large number of luxury shops are concentrated.
The IE campus in Madrid is very well connected by underground to many areas around the city. The two stops closest to campus are Gregorio Marañón (Lines 7 and 10) and Intercambiador de Avenida de América (Lines 4, 6, 7 and 9). There is also a bus stop right outside the campus entrance, which you can travel to on the number 12 bus coming from either Plaza de Cristo Rey or the Paseo Marqués de Zafra.
