BARCELONA, Spain, June 18 /PRNewswire/ -- The University of Barcelona
(UB), in collaboration with the Economy and Society Research Center Foundation
(Fundacion Centro de Investigacion de Economia y Sociedad - CIES), offers
Master's degrees in Corporate Social Responsibility and Third Sector Company
Management, providing online training in combination with campus-based
classes. Admission requirements include a university degree and professional
experience in each degree field. The academic staff is made up of professors
from four universities, including Georgia State University.
The combination of online and classroom-based training provides students
from all over the world access to specialized knowledge. These are intensive
master's courses that do not interfere with a student's professional work.

close relationship between student and professor and tailor the subject matter
to students' interests. Focus is always applied coursework in order to solve
the problems faced by students in their professions.
Courses are given in Spanish. Students can communicate in English but must
be able to read in Spanish.
To date, more than 500 students from Europe, Latin America, the United
States, Asia and Africa have taken these master's courses, which include an
international contact network.

years. These years of service have earned it acknowledgement as the best
