In a group setting, the exposure to different thinking styles and people promotes what is called creative abrasion, which, if properly managed, can greatly enhance the innovation potential. This is the philosophy behind MIETE, which was conceived to promote innovation and entrepreneurship with multidisciplinary teams. With this in mind, MIETE aims at adapting itself to the profiles of candidates from different areas including, amongst others, Management, Engineering, Biotechnology, Sciences and Design. Throughout the programme, the teams develop key integrated competencies on innovation, entrepreneurship and technology that will ultimately enable the students to create and develop new technology-based businesses.

The Degree in Information Systems and Technologies forms professionals in Information Systems Engineering. LTSI students are particularly prepared to become involved in two types of activities: 1) Computer Applications development to support situations of organizational work; 2) Information Systems development, that is, projects of organizational change that aim to improve the functioning of the organization by the exploitation of the potentialities of Information Technologies.
