Alessandro Franco is originally from Italy but has also lived in London and Dubai. He came to IE
University to earn his Dual Degree in Business Administration & Laws at the Segovia campus;
its cozy atmosphere and close-knit community offer a refreshing change of pace.

Despite its small size, Alessandro loves Segovia’s wealth of historical sites surrounded by
stunning natural landscapes. The campus itself is ensconced in an 800-year-old monastery and
this space welcomes students of all backgrounds and cultures. Because of this, he feels ready
to integrate into whatever environment his future career will involve.

For his dual degree, Alessandro sought disciplines that would be rich enough to offer lifelong
learning and engagement—business and law fit the bill perfectly. He’s also a fan of the arts and
is especially passionate about the role of music in his life. Currently, he serves as the vice
president of the university’s Theater Club.

Looking to the future, Alessandro intends to focus more on the Law side of things and combine
this with his passion for theater. Listen to the podcast as he shares more about his experience
at IE University and what its diverse environment will mean for his future career.
