How is the methodology of the specialization in Internacionalization of Tourism Commpanies?

This Master's aims to help you strengthen your entrepreneurial spirit to develop and launch tourism projects. We work on entrepreneurship skills through different tools and methodologies, among which CBL challenge learning stands out.

Our teaching methodology is very active and participatory; the student is the center of the learning process. Active participation in the classroom is encouraged through learning by doing and interaction among students.

You will experience firsthand entrepreneurship and innovation in projects and companies by developing your own project or an intra-entrepreneurial proposal from a collaborating company.

It is based on 3 pillars:

CBL This study methodology is based on challenge-based learning (CBL). During the course, you will have to respond to real challenges posed by teachers or organizations that are part of the CETT-UB partners network.

Thus, you will provide a concrete solution for a natural environment. Institutions such as Rusticae, Compass Group, Prezo, or Vilaplana, among others, have been part of the challenges to which our students have had to respond.

PBL With project-based learning (PBL), you will tackle transversal projects that respond to a real concrete problem in the tourism sector. In this way, you will develop collaboration, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills applied in a natural work environment.

CASE STUDIES
You will visit different organizations and institutions of the sector in Barcelona. You will have the opportunity to learn and apply the concepts thanks to the exposure to real situations from their own managers.
