Curriculum structure
The Master in Business Management – Intensive Program – offers lectures, seminars, and group activities, supported by audiovisual and multimedia resources. Given the emphasis on the practical application of knowledge, much of the work arises from the debate and the exchange of experiences between participants. This method assumes that students are active agents in their learning process; they have their individual goals in the program and are co-responsible for the quality of the learning process.
The curriculum structure is based on two elective and eight compulsory courses, as well as two courses in the form of research seminars.

Students must publicly defend the final work, evaluated by a panel of three PhD Professors, one of them invited from another institution.
