Financial Magazine has published its 2022 rankings that distinguish the 10 best higher education institutions in a range of categories. In the master's in fashion ranking, IED Barcelona has reached fifth place, while it is the sixth best institution in terms of its interior design programmes.

This recognition highlights the work of the school as a driving force behind innovation and talent through design training. A collective achievement resulting from the strength of the IED community in Spain, with schools in Madrid, Barcelona and Bilbao.

To develop the rankings, the portal analyzes more than 400 universities, business schools and higher education institutions each year. It devises the final classification based on two objective indicators: information from the educational institution itself and the school’s web metrics with relation to its academic reputation.
