Founded in 1953 as "Escuela de Negocios de Valparaíso" (Spanish for Valparaíso Business School), it currently offers a wide range of career paths, including Engineering, Business, Psychology, Human Studies (such as History, Literature and Philosophy) and Laws.
[edit] Educational Model
In this institution, the plan was to put in use the model that many prestigious universities do abroad. That is why the students have: a major, minors and fundamental subjects. The major is normally engineering, or literature, or psychology etc. The minor can be done in very different fields, such as: drama, music, philosophy, etc. And the fundamental subjects (which are all the same for every career, therefore every student) are: economics, government, ethics, law and society, administration etc. This guaranties students that are knowledgeable in various subjects, and not only in a particular area.
