Through its six campuses (Pamplona, San Sebastián, Madrid, Barcelona, Munich and New York City), the University confers 35 official degrees, 13 dual degrees and more than 38 master's programs in 14 faculties, 2 university schools, 17 institutes, its graduate business school, IESE ("Instituto de Estudios Superiores de la Empresa"; in English: "International Graduate School of Management" or "Institute of Higher Business Studies"), ISSA ("Instituto Superior de Secretariado y Administracion"; in English: Superior Institute of Secretarial and Administrative Studies), and other centers and institutions.

The founder described the ideals he wanted to transmit in the university: After the foundation of the Faculty of Philosophy in 1955 and the Business School, IESE, in 1958, the ''Estudio General de Navarra'' was established as a university by The Holy See on August 6, 1960, and Escrivá was designated as the Great Chancellor.
