Teaching Methodologies

The teaching methodology follows the face-to-face regime (in the classroom) with the aim of improving the
connection between theoretical and practical knowledge. It uses a source of theoretical knowledge
(scientific publications) and uses practical cases. It also promotes the active participation of the student
through the discussion and presentation of ideas and opinions.

It is expected that, at the end of the curricular unit, the student will be able to:
– Describe the analytical tools necessary to explain the phenomena of globalization of markets and production that currently characterize the world economy;
