Structure

Timetable

The Master in Business Economics will work with a daytime group. The classes are from Monday to Friday from 8:30 to 18:30. The calendar which schedules all classes is announced to the students at the beginning of each semester.

In the case of courses taught by invited professors, a concentration of classes may occur in only a few days but with a more intensive schedule. In these circumstances, classes will be scheduled well in advance, allowing time to take the necessary measures.

Attendance Regimes

The Masters at the Católica Porto Business School has a single but flexible attendance regime. The curriculum is designed so the programme has a minimum of three semesters (one year and a half). However, for students who wish to obtain a Masters's degree while maintaining their professional activity, you can perform the Masters's within a maximum of 5 semesters (two and a half years), which allows you to distribute the academic load over an extended thus conciliating the schedules and professional load with the Masters.

The beginning and end of semesters are published annually in the academic calendar of the 2nd cycle of the Católica Porto Business School (see Academic Calendar).
