Master in Management
In a world ever so competitive, young professionals are left to fend for themselves in attempts to learn what is needed and apply what is learned. Helping new graduates in this transition, the Master in Management offered at FGV EBAPE is one of a kind in Brazil today. With a relatively short duration and intensive learning, students can be assured to leave with notable skills meant to set them apart in the job market.
The Master in Management is the passport for students to reach exceptional business careers. The program provides a solid foundation in core management areas with a strong international perspective—students dive into the wonderful world of practical and theoretical knowledge. There are two possibilities:
- Regular Program Format: Classes and master thesis are done at FGV EBAPE;
- Double Degree Program Format: Classes are done both at FGV EBAPE and Católica-Lisbon School of Business and Economics (CLSBE) along with the master thesis.
All of this is accomplished by combining soft skills with applied learning by means of a project and a case based methodology. Central to this value proposal is the expertise of highly qualified multicultural and multidisciplinary faculty members—English here is the first language.
Having in mind what is most attractive in the Brazilian and international job market today, the program has two major value propositions:
To offer an improved and customized knowledge of the main areas of business management;
To confer a master’s degree while offering individual professional development services that will significantly increase the employment perspectives.
Target Students
This program is best suited for the following candidates:
- Students who are about to obtain or have obtained their undergraduate degree from any field with the last 3 years.

The students’ study plan will be prepared by the Católica Lisbon academic coordination according to the program chosen by the students and the courses taken at FGV EBAPE.
Amazon Immersion Experience
The students will be able to observe first-hand some of the environmental projects and sustainable management practices performed by key players within the public, private and third sector in the Amazon region.
- Students’ activities during their stay may include: Interviews with/presentations by key influencers and policy makers that perform the role of movers and shakers of Brazilian policies on sustainability.
- On-site observation on the challenges and opportunities faced by the private, public, and non-governmental organizations working on sustainability projects.
- Interaction with employees, consultants and beneficiaries of the activities performed by these organizations.
- Cultural events and local visits.
We expect the Amazon Immersion Experience to expand students networking, complement their academic training, and offer a unparallel cultural experience.
