This module provides the methodological knowledge necessary to successfully face the rest of the subjects that comprise the chosen training, according to the degree of specialisation that is intended to be given to the Master.

After completing the methodological module, students can choose between two pathways:

  • Financial Strategy Pathway “and Business Valuation (UAL)”.
  • Pathway in “Business Analysis and Diagnosis (UPCT)”.

Each pathway is composed of 30 ECTS credits of elective subjects so that students shape their master according to their own interests, choosing one of the two proposals: Research profile or professional profile, which will be reflected in the diploma supplement. Students who opt for the research profile must complete 6 credits of Research Initiation and 6 credits of Data Analysis and Techniques II. While students who opt for the professional profile must take 9 credits of Internships I and 3 credits of Internships II. All of them must choose the remaining 18 elective credits among the other elective subjects offered, according to their pathway. All the students must carry out a Master’s Thesis of 12 credits to complete the degree.
