The Career Accelerator

MBA Blog / 14th April 2025

Q. While many business schools are just adding AI and Blockchain to their electives, these subjects form part of a much wider list of electives on offer at the University of San Andrés, for example, AgTech and Business in the Metaverse. How important is innovation to the University, and to what extent does this help to future-proof your students’ careers?

The EMBA is focused on innovation, which influences both its curriculum and the entire educational process. Business courses on artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, data science, and neuroscience offer a thorough grasp of the technologies causing change. We feel that students who are exposed to disruptive technologies acquire the skills necessary to foresee and manage change, which increases their resilience and adaptability in unpredictable corporate settings.

Students actively apply innovation, developing business models that can succeed in emerging markets via the New Business Launchpad track and SparkLab, our startup incubator. Through initiatives like Deep Dive Destinations, students also have the option to travel to Silicon Valley, New York, Boston, Singapore or China to gain firsthand knowledge of cutting-edge companies and potential future markets.

Via our lifelong learning initiatives, we guarantee ongoing access to knowledge, enabling alumni to stay abreast of changing market trends long after earning their MBA. We ensure our graduates don’t merely respond to change but actively promote it by integrating innovation into every facet of their careers.
