Affiliated Professors are at the heart of all Barcelona School of Economics research and education initiatives. Each of them contributes their individual expertise across specialized fields in Economics, Finance, or Data Science and has helped to consolidate BSE's research impact and reputation in the international academic community.

In addition to pursuing their own research projects, many of our Affiliated Professors design, direct, and teach in the BSE Master's programs, Summer Schools, Intensive Courses, and in-company training programs. Some of them also work closely with BSE leadership to ensure the quality of our programs and shape the future of the Barcelona School of Economics.
