The Master in Business for Architecture and Design trains professionals for a future that does not differentiate between business and design, not between physical and digital, and in which action, collaboration, and multidisciplinarity are the rule. Architects and designers stand out as creative and analytical thinkers, that can contribute with powerful solutions to some of the complex problems of our time. But developing this potential in full requires a vision and a set of skills that go far beyond their realm. Impact in spatial design implies understanding how the economy works, how companies create and manage value through ideas, people, and processes, how industry problems can be transformed into business opportunities, how clients and companies engage with each other, or how technology and innovation can empower organizations.
