Managers tend to base their decisions on habits and conventions and on self-confidence. The course sets out to bring the scientific process to the center of the manager's decision-making process. The course aims to discuss how scientific methodology can be used to solve business problems, in other words, evidence-based management, which means using the best available evidence in the decision-making process of organizations. The proposal is to develop critical thinking to search for the most appropriate theory, content and knowledge to produce the best evidence, reducing biases and inappropriate judgments.

The Projects I - TA Seminars course lasts one semester and aims to introduce students to the tools needed to construct the Applied Work (TA) in accordance with the recommendations for structure, content and research methods in the Applied Work Guide for the Professional Master's Degree in Management for Competitiveness (MPGC).

The aim of the course is to present the demand and supply relationships of the health sector in Brazil, comparing it with other existing systems and discussing the economic outlook for the sector.

In the current context, there is a growing demand for health services, both private and public, to be organized in such a way as to respond to people's needs and preferences and offer effective, humanized care. The healthcare manager is necessarily an information user. Organizations are overwhelmed with information, even more so with the increasingly common implementation of integrated management systems and electronic medical records.
The concepts and tools of Managerial Epidemiology help administrators to make decisions based on technical and scientific information (evidence) that defines needs and evaluates results from a population perspective, enabling them to address central issues such as: defining the services that will be offered by the organization and the skills required for the staff, organizing processes, and determining whether the organization is effective and produces the desired results.

The healthcare sector has presented enormous challenges when it comes to organizing its operations and supply chain. This course therefore aims to present concepts related to the Healthcare Supply Chain and Hospital Logistics, discussing trends and opportunities for more competitive and collaborative management of organizations in the sector.
Supply chain management in healthcare can be understood as "managing the flow of information, inputs and financial resources involved in the acquisition and movement of products and services from suppliers to the end customer in order to improve hospital performance and control costs."
In this way, its objectives are to guarantee input and patient care, reduce costs with materials and equipment, guarantee hospital safety by providing a level of service to patients and a good relationship with doctors and service providers.

The beginnings of evaluation in healthcare are usually linked to the work of Avedis Donabedian in Michigan in the 1960s. Quality studies are analyzed from two angles: one associated with hospital accreditation, which began formally in the 1950s, and the other, from the work of Donald Berwick, at the Harvard Community Health Plan, in the 1980s.
The movement for safety in health services took hold at the beginning of the 21st century and is now widespread in the World Health Organization. Brazil has a number of accreditation methodologies in its environment, represented by different organizations, although their penetration in the hospital market is low; service evaluation has its place in the public authorities in the health surveillance system (which is mandatory for all types of service). In recent years, the ANS has also started a movement to accredit operators. In addition, in the second decade of the 21st century, movements began to focus on person-centered care and patient experiences. The relationship between the evaluation, quality and safety of hospitals and the competitiveness of these organizations will be the central object of discussion in the course.
