The University Institute of Business Sciences (IUCE): origin of the Faculty of Economic and Business Sciences of the University of Seville and its studies in Business Administration and Management
Abstract
In 1971, the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration was created at the University of Seville, where the first degree in Business Administration was taught for the first time in a Spanish public university. The immediate predecessor of the Faculty of Seville was the Instituto Universitario de Ciencias de la Empresa (IUCE), founded at the Faculty of Law of the University of Seville in 1963. This public institute was the first in Spain specialized in business economics, and its curriculum served as the basis for the implementation of the degree in Business Sciences at the Faculty of Seville. The aim of this paper is to show the origin of these university studies and for this purpose it focuses on the history of the IUCE up to the creation of the Faculty of Seville, with an analysis of its determining factors, as well as its main architects.
