I am a member of the Academic Board and act as supervisor for this programme. The PhD in Management Science at Universidad Diego Portales aims to train autonomous and excellent researchers with theoretical and practical knowledge in the use of quantitative methods and tools. This will enable them to identify, manage, and solve problems in the field of Business Management. This programme also stands out for its emphasis on quantitative data analysis methodologies, aiming to develop methods to apply, evaluate, and develop econometric, psychometric, and multivariate methods.

Political Economy
Universidad Diego Portales
This course aims to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the role of the state, institutions, and the market in resource allocation. Based on the institutional perspective, analytical tools are obtained to understand the decisions made by individuals, governments, and other social actors. We evaluate the impact of institutions on the evolution of societies over time and how to design, or at least re-examine, more effective and fair institutions. In this context, key models from the literature on political economy are reviewed.

Institutions of Governance and Development
Leiden University
Why do some nations thrive economically while others struggle? Why do seemingly robust political systems fail to address urgent problems effectively? Why are human rights a priority in certain jurisdictions but not in others? Furthermore, why do some diverse communities cooperate peacefully, whereas others are mired in tension or violence? As an introduction to governance, economics, and development, this course provides a foundational scholarly approach to such questions by emphasising formal and informal rules that guide social interaction.
