The method

The IEDE Business School teaching method is one of the greatest added values of the master's degree course, having been strengthened and enriched by more than 15 years of experience in management and specialized training

These methods are based on highly practical, result-oriented education in which renowned professionals in the sector transfer their knowledge of management skills to students through the proposal and resolution of real cases. With these methods, the student becomes the central figure of the learning process throughout the master's course, both in and outside the classroom.

A practical case-by-case study brings into the classroom the managers' experience in different business situations related to the hotel and tourism sector. Students work in teams analyzing these real cases, under the constant guidance of professors and lecturers who monitor the discussions and facilitate reflection and debate. This, in turn, favors the exchange of ideas, know-how and solutions.

This method enables students to:

• Acquire and develop the professional skills in highest demand within this sector
• Share their know-how and exchange opinions with their colleagues, enhancing and increasing their learning
• Develop their entrepreneurial spirit

Our goal: to convey to students the importance of two things: 'learning how to learn' (a basic skill for a society in which change management is both an opportunity and a great challenge); and that of turning experience into knowledge.

We promote this learning by applying today's new business methods, using a combination of resources and means which lead to success.

The master's course is designed and structured so that students learn and develop the human and technical skills necessary for optimum management, as well as to achieve the program’s objectives.

The method’s success lies partially in a rigorous initial student selection, both in the admission process and when forming workgroups, processes which are carried out by the Information and Admissions Department and the Academic Department at IEDE Business School. These steps must take into account the academic and professional track record of students and their technical abilities, specifically, their emotional intelligence, drive to succeed, motivation capabilities, attitudes and perceptions of the world around them.
