Presentation

The School of Economic and Organizational Sciences (ECEO) covers the areas of economics, management and tourism, guided by the common and transversal objective of training highly qualified professionals, endowed with critical thinking and creativity, who will allow them to solve problems, informed, strategic and sustainable way.

Thus, ECEO assumes sustainability, interdisciplinarity, adaptability, diversity and multiculturalism as the basic values of its activity. ECEO adds value to the academic experiences of its students, actively and intentionally promoting their relational capital and their strategic career management.

ECEO assumes an innovative and differentiating academic model, which abandons teaching centered solely on knowledge, in favor of learning centered on competences, in which the student must demonstrate his acquisition through effective exercise and not through repetition. Pedagogical techniques that involve the use of gamification, simulation and collaborative learning contribute to a training experience based on the objective of promoting active learning, in which the student integrates theoretical knowledge into their effective practice, through the growing mastery of tools that provide them with real, current and relevant skills for their employability and professional and social training. Professional immersion seeks to bridge the gap between academia and the job market, aiming at more fruitful learning and faster integration of students into the professional environment. On the other hand, the contact with students and teachers of different nationalities, with the consequent exchange of experiences and experiences, contribute to a multicultural perspective in different areas of knowledge and in the exercise of citizenship.

ECEO's mission is therefore to train citizens and professionals for a global world, through a differentiating academic model, providing its students with learning based on scientific research and guided by ethical principles and social responsibility. It is also intended to promote an active citizenship throughout the academic community that encourages sustainable economic, environmental and social development.
