The Chair of Internationalization of Studies Luis Fernández Somoza is part of the idea of projecting our students and professors internationally, as well as the reception of prestigious academic personalities, who provide a broad vision in the complex reality of economic globalization.
The training of economists, both teachers and students, requires adaptation to international competition and flexibility in adapting to new markets and new products in an increasingly transnational economy. The strategic planning of the Faculty of Economics and Business of the University of A Coruña contemplates this fact, and the Chair intends to project it as one more element of this program.
The Chair is structured through a follow-up commission, which has among its objectives the mobility of teachers and students, as well as the international presence of the Faculty through new Agreements of double degree, Master or PhD degrees with other Faculties of Economy and enterprise and located as strategic. Conference cycles will also be promoted with academics of international relevance and other activities of transfer of knowledge and technology.
From here we invite both students and teachers to enrich their training through the internationalization of their knowledge and skills, knowing that this is the right way to improve the welfare of our economy and the satisfaction of its professionals.
The reception of faculty from other countries is for us the axis of the relationship with other centers, so we invite you to contact us in this project, in the security of the exchange of knowledge will be fruitful for both and will allow us to get closer to Our economies and our professionals.
