Description of MBA Program: 

Today, no teaching around business can ignore the inseparability between man and nature. If the previous paradigm was that the man could “explore” nature, now no business can afford to act this way. We emphasize the importance of the Triple Bottom Line thinking (Profit, Planet, People) as a mention throughout the course, given its importance. Brazil is a “Monster Country”, a country of continental dimensions and big population. It is also part of the BRIC group, therefore an essential participant of all global developments with regards to issues around the area of Sustainable Development. We think that enabling our students to be ready to this moment is part of our job. We prepare the MBA students to manage the social, ethical and environmental issues by teaching ethics, corporate governance and Global Economic Environment as part of our course and bringing speakers on Sustainability and related issues frequently.



How does the MBA program 'walk the talk' of social and environmental impact?: 

BSP as an educational institution is fully compromised with the sustainable society challenges. The theme became one of the key issues related to research and programs and is embedded in our educational activities.
