History 
In 1962, the U.S. Agency for International Development, established by the US president John F. Kennedy, summons the main business schools to study the possibility of developing management and businesses programs in Latin America.
This Project was trusted to Ernst Arbuckle, Dean of the Graduate School of Business of Stanford University, he assumed the challenge and grouped up a team of professors led by Gail M. Oxley and Alan B. Coleman to evaluate in site the feasibility of undertaking this ambitious project. 
This is how on July 25 of 1963 the Peruvian and American governments founded the “Escuela de Administración de Negocios para Graduados, ESAN” or “ESAN, Graduate School of Business” as known in English.
Its organization was trusted to the Stanford Graduate School of Business and professor Alan B. Coleman. Shortly after, a seminar on international high management was taught. A few months later, ESAN opened its doors and professionals from all Latin America applied for studying in the first full-time MBA in the Spanish-speaking world.
The following year, on April 1 of 1964, the 1st promotion of the Magister program started classes. More than 54 years have gone by since then, but the tone, style and spirit of the American teachers who forged ESAN remain valid even these days in ESAN University.

International accreditation 
ESAN received AMBA (Association of MBAs) accreditation in 2002, being the first Peruvian MBA program and institution of higher education to be internationally credited by this association. In 2013 ESAN University received international accreditation from AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business) for 10 of their programs: 7 postgraduate masters and 3 bachelor's degrees.
