At Graduate School of Business each year we offer two cross-cutting activities with the aim of improving some of the soft skills of our students that are not part of their hard knowledge training of each Masters´ Program. Specifically, we focus on communication skills of ideas and projects, improving the presence in social networks through the acquisition of appropriate capabilities to write a CV or fostering networks and job seeking with prestigious companies or institutions.

With all these activities we encourage students of the different Master Programs of the School to develop their interpersonal skills among their classmates by creating a social network that may be useful not only at present but also in the future.
