19 mayo, 2026
The 2026 edition of the prestigious ranking of the best master's degrees in Spain, prepared annually by the newspaper El Mundo, has been made public. In this edition, the Master in Hospitality Management taught by Sant Pol Hospitality & Culinary Business School - Barcelona (St.Pol HC) has obtained the second national position within the Management and Administration category.
This recognition places the school's program on the podium of the Spanish educational landscape, consolidating its trajectory as a benchmark in higher education for the international hotel and tourism sector.
A reference in the educational field
The El Mundo ranking, which has over two decades of experience analyzing the Spanish university system, was born with the objective of providing transparency to the academic market and guiding future professionals. Today, it has established itself as one of the most recognized and consulted classifications by both students and professionals. The study selects the most outstanding master's degrees in the country after analyzing more than 1,000 different training options, relying on the opinion of a panel composed of more than 800 experts, teachers, students, and human resources managers from leading companies.
It is based on 26 objective criteria, grouped into five fundamental blocks:
Results:
This evaluates the employment rate (6 months after graduation) and overall student satisfaction.
Human Resources:
This measures the quality and prestige of the faculty, as well as the personalized tutorial support provided.
Study plan:
This analyzes innovation, the balance between theory and practice, and the program's real-world connection to the professional sector.
Master's Program Demand:
This assesses the program's acceptance rate, its success as a postgraduate degree, and the prestige of its leadership.
Material resources:
This measures the commitment to technological innovation and the suitability of specialized facilities.
Excellence and employability in the hospitality sector
The second position reached by St.Pol HC's Master in Hospitality Management reinforces the school's commitment to a methodology centered on the combination of academic excellence with professional immersion. The program, which holds the validity of an official degree granted by the University of Girona (UdG), guarantees its students higher education with full recognition and a high standard of educational quality.
The program invites a diverse profile: from recent graduates in management areas such as Business Administration, Tourism, or Marketing, to professionals with experience in the hospitality sector who are looking for a qualitative leap toward high-responsibility positions. This coexistence in a multicultural environment enriches the learning and global networking of the students.
Students choose from the beginning between two itineraries: International Hotel Management or Food & Beverage (F&B) and Restaurant Management. Both paths are complemented with transversal training in Revenue Management, finance, and operations. This specialization, added to the direct connection with top-tier hotel groups and high-end restaurants, allows students to complete their training with international stays, guaranteeing excellent job placement indices.
Thus, the program prepares its graduates for positions of maximum responsibility, such as General Management, corporate management, strategic consulting, or the management of key departments (Operations, Revenue Management, or Guest Experience) in international environments.
This result in the 2026 ranking, coinciding with the celebration of the institution's 60th anniversary, underscores St.Pol HC's leadership in training profiles capable of responding to a global market where specialization and practical experience are the values most demanded by companies in the sector.
