Práctica empresarial observatorio socioeconómico de Santander

Abstract

Professional internships are a great tool to apply all the knowledge acquired from the university. Attending this university has been an enriching experience where you learn to get involved in an environment of interaction and communication with colleagues, managers, and customers. In this way, Universidad Santo Tomás opens a space for students to develop new and unique skills through professional internships. In this case it is executed in the research unit, the Socioeconomic Observatory of Santander. The purpose of this practice plan is to support the Socioeconomic Observatory of Santander. This is supported through research, analyzation, and development of technical reports. This is primarily based upon the four (4) lines of action: Productivity and Competitiveness, Labor Market, Poverty and Social Exclusion, and Theory & Economic Policy. The constant monitoring of each of these strategic lines is put on display by maintaining an informative and active social networks and website. On these platforms, we examine and develop different economic and social indicators of the department of Santander, both nationally and internationally. Overall, the business internship provides students with various tools, such as real-life workplace experience, guidance, and an understanding of what the potential future may hold. Students are immersed with an experience where they can take advantage of all the skills and knowledge achieved at the university.
