Master's Degree in International Trade (online)

The dynamism that characterises the European economic environment, together with the phenomenon of world economic globalisation and the development of Information and Communication Technologies (translated into a strong growth of electronic commerce), make it necessary to train a university graduate with adequate knowledge to effectively and professionally develop a booming activity that is key to national and regional competitiveness, such as international commerce.

For this reason, it is a requirement to offer Master's Degree in International Trade with the following objectives:

• To provide a specialisation in international trade to graduates in the legal-social field (graduates in economics, business administration, commerce, or current graduates in business administration and management, graduates in business sciences and economic law) that allows them to complete their current training. Likewise, to provide business management knowledge to students from other fields, such as the humanities, who have skills in a key tool in international trade such as languages.
• To provide companies with specialists capable of solving problems of access to foreign markets, planning economic activities abroad, defining strategies and programmes, preparing international marketing campaigns, resolving customs procedures and international economic operations, solving legal problems associated with international trade, resolving financial or tax problems arising from international trade, managing and planning processes of internationalisation of companies, and other similar problems related to international trade.
