Herberto Gut Scholarship — Master's Scholarship

The Herberto Gut Scholarship is a named award within the IESE International Foundation Scholarship Program for women IESE describes as Latin. The Foundation supports high-potential MBA students through donor-funded awards, with selection emphasizing academic excellence, leadership, human-centered values and commitment to social development.

Recipients enter IESE’s in-person full-time MBA based in Barcelona, choosing a 15- or 19-month track with overseas options. The September 2027 intake has four application rounds, and scholarship requests are assessed only after MBA admission.
