The School of Advertising and Marketing (ESPM) is one of Brazil’s most prestigious institutions, with more than six decades of excellence in education. Founded in 1951 to train professionals for the advertising industry, ESPM has since expanded into marketing, communication, management, design, technology, and law.
Known for its distinctive blend of theory and practice, ESPM prepares students to meet real-world challenges through an innovative, creativity-driven approach. Its state-of-the-art infrastructure—equipped with modern laboratories and technology—supports hands-on learning and professional development.
Strong ties with leading companies enable students to work on real projects and gain direct exposure to the job market, contributing to an employability rate of nearly 90%. ESPM also maintains a strong commitment to social responsibility, promoting initiatives that positively impact local communities.
More than academic training, ESPM fosters holistic development grounded in ethics, citizenship, and sustainability. Dedicated to shaping ethical, innovative, and globally minded professionals, ESPM continues to form leaders prepared for the challenges of the 21st century.
