Leadership with a Foundation in Humanity
The Faculties of Humanities and Social Sciences (Comillas CIHS) and the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration (Comillas ICADE) have brought together their tradition and prestige to create an innovative proposal for education and training that seeks to prepare the leaders of the companies and organizations of the future.
The labor market and workplace are changing, the impact of digitalization has accelerated, and the priorities of management and society have been modified. At Comillas, we are aware that the management of talent leads to an impact on society and the creation of the entire value chain, and that it must be promoted by all of the governing bodies of companies. In this context, the role of Directors and General Managers in contributing to the development of talent is fundamental.
Therefore, this new dual degree is aimed at all of those individuals interested in working with people and for the common good, who are motivated and would like to make a difference in the way that they manage interpersonal relationships, companies and organizations.
The Management of Diversity
Comillas has a long-standing tradition in educating and training both competent, sensitive and sensible Business leaders and Psychologists. The union of both professional fields will result in professionals who are at the same time Directors and General Managers with knowledge and sensitivity for dealing with people, and Psychologists with skills and abilities for management and leadership.
All of this is underpinned by the solid Humanistic values of the University, such as inclusion and respect for others.
Students of this new dual degree will benefit from the most advanced teaching methodologies, which rely heavily on teamwork, and a course syllabus with such themes as personal relationships, the ability to know others, the management of diverse interests, teamwork and conflict management.
Future Career Opportunities
Comillas is a university with strong links to the Business and Entrepreneurial system, an ideal environment for the development of new transversal professional profiles.
In an organizational and business environment where managing uncertainty has become a necessity, the combination of Business Administration and Management, together with Psychology, broadens career opportunities and improves the ability to adapt to a dynamic and changing work environment. This new degree brings together two different, but strongly interconnected, areas of knowledge.
