Our increasingly interrelated and globalized world needs new professionals who are able to actively interact with people from all over the world using 21st century tools. Our times call for professionals with the ambition to change the world and wise enough to do so in a manner which is both realistic and humanistic. I see Deusto as a very up-to-date platform to learn, to meet people, and to gain opportunities to take part in this wonderful challenge: building a better world while enjoying the journey, and at the same time proud of our profession, our legacy and our life.
