Complexity of the public problems that societies face requires professionals with skills and knowledge to lead change and improve communities at all levels, based on proposing solutions with innovative, ethical, and responsible approaches.

The integration of various disciplines and action-based teaching are essential to merge theoretical with practical learning. This combination makes possible to address complex challenges with a deep understanding of the problems, using analytical and technological tools. It is essential to work with profiles capable of leading transformations in the public sphere, whether from the government, non-governmental organizations, or the private sector.
