Science, Technology and Innovation Management and Policy

The Double Degree Master’s programmes agreement between HSE University (the Master’s Programme in Science, Technology and Innovation Management and Policy of the Institute for Statistical Studies and Economics of Knowledge) and State University of Campinas (the Master’s Programme in Business Administration of the School of Applied Sciences) was signed in February 2024. For master’s courses at University of Campinas, HSE University students can choose one or two semester(s) among the two years of study planned for the conclusion of the course, besides the first semester of their first year, which must be spent at HSE University.
