The main distinguishing feature of MPAP is undoubtedly the qualification of its faculty, composed of professors who, in addition to standing out for their high and diverse academic qualifications, are also characterized by performing relevant functions in the upper echelons of the public sector.
This is a fundamental aspect of the program, since it allows students to present, analyze, and discuss ways to apply the theoretical tools presented in each subject to the reality of Public Administration, which emphasizes the professional nature of the course.
The objective of Area of Interest 1 is to analyze and understand the main determinants of economic development, as well as the role of the State in this process.
Area of interest 2 aims to provide a solid foundation in economic theory, public and private finance, and the financial system. To this end, the most recent theories and applications in the field of credit, monetary, and interest rate policies are presented, as well as the tools and instruments commonly used in financial management and project evaluation.
Area of Interest 3 is part of the debate regarding the regulatory state and promoter of economic development within the context of a free market economy. This area aims to provide students with a set of theoretical and practical knowledge that allows them to understand the logic behind state intervention through regulation, as well as to reflect on its consequences for the behavior of economic agents.
Area of interest 4 investigates how artificial intelligence and data science techniques can be applied to economic analysis. The focus is on the use of AI for modeling and forecasting economic phenomena, as well as in the evaluation of public policies, combining theoretical foundations with practical applications in different fields of economics.
