"Companies require management and organization in any area". So explains Sandra Robles, a former student of Degree in management Applied Management and Human Resources technician at business biotech company Viralgen, dedicated to the manufacture of viral vectors for gene therapy.

"At department I deal with the management of people, selection processes, data analysis, management of subsidies and management of procedures, among others", she points out.

For Sandra Robles, the Degree in management Applied Management has given her a lot to carry out her tasks.

He also reminds them that a young person's vision always brings many positive things. "Don't be afraid to propose ideas or new processes to work, you will be surprised by your innovative capacity," he concludes.
