Celaya, Gto., February 15, 2018.- Students from the degrees of Administration, Financial Management and Marketing received classes from researchers from the Tecnológico of Costa Rica, who were at the Celaya-Salvatierra Campus of the University of Guanajuato as part of the Academic Collaboration Program.

Professors and researchers Ronald Brenes Sánchez and Jaime Solano Soto, and Professor Sonia Mora González, of the Center for Research in Administration, Economy and Technological management of the Tecnológico of Costa Rica (CIADEG-TEC), shared with the students, new methodologies and strategies for efficient performance in professional life.

Prof. Sonia Mora, an expert in information technology management, gave a lecture on professional project management, where she highlighted good global practices to properly manage a project and make it successful.

Ronald Brenes, for his part, considered important to work with the students a program of development of management skills because he considers that "the Plan of integral development of the students is being measured by the "soft" skills that they possess in the time they join organizations."

Having skills in creative processes, emotional intelligence, decision-making are key to guaranteeing the success of young people once they are in the field of work, Brenes Sanchez told them.

Workers, he added, are measured by the ability to move those skills to work teams. "Emerging economies will be rewarded for human development," he pointed out.

The financial management students had the opportunity to work with Jaime Solano, who is also the author of the book Introduction to Programming with Python. Jaime Solano deployed to the students the possibilities offered by this tool, the programming techniques and its combination with a suitable language.

The visit of the researchers responds to the academic exchange program to promote the interculturality and internationalization of teachers and, thus, to strengthen the training of students, said Dr. Benito Rodríguez Haros, Director of the Division of Social and Administrative Sciences.

He noted that campus students have visited the Tecnológico of Costa Rica and have joined the work projects that are promoted in that institution, where they have obtained meaningful learning and intercultural experiences that have contributed to their training.
