Career Field
The Professional Master’s in Management for Competitiveness has the mission of transferring management knowledge generated by FGV EAESP’s study and research centers to society, while leveraging the generation of new applied knowledge, in order to increase the competiveness of organizations.
The program is divided into six areas that encompass specific functions and sectors of an organization: Finance and Controllership; Supply Chain Management; Health Management; Sustainability; Information Technology; and Retailing. Developed by professors with state-of-the-art knowledge in the area, as well as FGV’s partner companies and executives, the course offers innovative education methodologies that result in a program that is unique in its conception and design.
Educational approach
The MPGC has a unique educational approach. The program was developed by professors with cutting-edge knowledge in the area, as well as the partner companies and executives of FGVsaúde, and in collaboration with FGV’s Center for the Development of Teaching and Learning (CEDEA), to incorporate the latest methodologies for designing innovative educational and teaching programs. The result is a program that is unique in its conception and design, in which subjects are experienced in three units that involve seminars and meetings at the center.
Flexibility
The program allows each student to determine his or her own trajectory, but without undermining the characteristics of a professional master’s program, as illustrated in the following table.
The master’s course is composed of 390 hours (26 credits), and 90 of these hours (6 credits) are MPGC shared subjects. Students must take the Methodology of Scientific Problems subject, offered in SNOC format. They must also take another 60 hours (4 credits) of shared subjects, choosing between Negotiation and Communication, Leadership and Change Management, and Management for Competitiveness and Innovation (SNOC). In addition to these three options, students may take any master’s subject offered at FGV EAESP as part of the MPGI, MPA, MPGPP, CMCD, Winter School and SNOC-GNAM programs, to make up 60 hours (4 credits) of shared subjects.
Regarding specific subjects in the finance and controllership area, 300 hours (20 credits) are allocated. Using this time, students may do up to 60 hours (4 credits) in the pool of subjects offered on the list
