"The highlight of my training at UPC is that my professors have been first-level professionals and that the curriculum is multidisciplinary. Thanks to the international agreements, I had the opportunity to travel to Nazareth College in New York in 2008, in order to improve my English. There, I met students from Turkey, Hungary, Italy, and Korea. My strong academic training has given me the chance to be currently working for El Comercio group.”

“I’m currently working as a Portfolio Manager in the Reserves Management area of the Central Reserve Bank of Peru, where I was admitted after successfully passing their extension course in Advanced Finance. This achievement was possible thanks to everything I learned at the University, which allowed me to compete with the best students of economics of the country. Throughout the program, I received an intense training in econometrics, microeconomics and macroeconomics, and I also developed analytical skills through classes, courses and evaluations designed to enhance the students' skills. Likewise, I had the opportunity to learn from first-level professionals such as officials of the Central Reserve Bank of Peru, the Ministry of Economy and Finance among other key institutions for the country's economy.”

“Graduating from UPC taught me that a good theory goes hand in hand with practice, and it also made me see my environment in an analytical way, and trust that I am prepared to overcome any challenge in the labor market. The continuous quality of its professors has inspired me to always strive for excellence, to challenge myself to create opportunities that position me at work, but what I consider even more important is to always think and act as an economist.”

“I am glad I chose to study at UPC because it allowed me to have a broader view of things. For example, the mere fact of having taken a full course about the Austrian school of economics seems like a great advantage over other universities, because it is important to know different currents to give more accurate opinions. I have been fortunate to have first-level professors, who always had their doors open for any question or advice. Finally, I feel quite satisfied with the several courses, lectures and services offered by the University even after graduating.”
