Master in International Cooperation and Development

The Master in International Cooperation and Development's program from Cattolica Univesity aims at converting theoretical knowledge into practical wisdom, and to give students a specific set of professional skills to successfully face the job market. This is possible thanks to these distinctive characteristics:

• the limited number of admitted students guarantees an efficient interaction with instructors and colleagues in the class;
• active participation in class includes simulations, case analysis, team assignments;
• experts and executives take an active part in the program sharing their professional experiences with the students;
• the internship is a chance to directly test skills acquired during courses.

The MICAD programme conjugates theoretical knowledge and practical experience, so to give students a specific set of professional skills to successfully face the global job market, and to foster development cooperation with personal creativity competence:

• Identifying local needs, valorizing partnering, bottom-up approaches.
• Managing technical, financial and administrative aspects of cooperation initiatives.
• Accompanying development actors and civil society in identifying resources and deciding upon their use.
• Collaborating with national and international institutions within the policy framework of the country where projects are implemented.

MICaD is structured in four complementary levels, fostering a a multidimensional approach. During the programme, scientific training and professional training are intertwined, so to facilitate the indispensable dialogue between theory and practice, that should never be disconnected: hands on reality fosters new waves of relevant research, and systematic reflection upon practical experience makes learning possible.
