Together with our other institutional pillars—globalization, development and social responsibility— it prepares students to excel professionally and become conscientious citizens of the world. Our graduates generate and execute creative, productive, technical and social proposals to benefit the country and the world. We are proud that our education provides our entrepreneurs with a broad perspective of the world of business based on solid ethical and moral values. Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola continues to grow and to provide the education that professionals require in the new century. Our outcomes-based education model, together with a focus on mastering the English language, prepares our graduates to thrive while building their very own businesses or leading in the corporate world. Raúl Diez Canseco Terry Founding President Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola ACADEMIC CATALOG 2015 13 LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT USIL is Peru’s first bilingual university. We take on the responsibility to shape entrepreneurial leaders with a global vision, based on the solid foundation provided by our Institutional Pillars: Entrepreneurship, Social Responsibility, Globalization and Development. Globalization is one of the most significant attributes of the USIL Educational Model, enabling our students to have the capacity to face the challenges imposed by the world of today. Our curriculum includes program-specific courses taught in English. Intensive teaching in this language allows us to ensure the formation of bilingual professionals who carry out research projects, prepare cases and master a vocabulary appropriate to the context that matches their Academic Program, skills which guarantee their professional success on an international scale. In addition, we have over 180 strategic partnerships with the top universities on all five continents. In this regard, we have established Dual Degree Programs with renowned academic institutions and the exclusive Walt Disney World International, which has enabled more than 1200 students to do early professional work experience in the United States. Thus, Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola has become an outstanding ambassador of Peruvian academic culture in the world, an institution which every year is host to hundreds of students from abroad opening doors for students and the world. Ramiro Salas Bravo President Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola ACADEMIC CATALOG 2015 15 VISION To be a leader in shaping talented and ethical professionals, according to national and international standards. INSTITUTIONAL INFORMATION MISSION To shape competent entrepreneurial professionals who are socially responsible and capable of performing successfully, both domestically and internationally. HISTORY The Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola, a private, for-profit Peruvian university, was founded in 1995 by Mr. Raúl Diez Canseco Terry, a well-known Peruvian business entrepreneur, educator and political leader. Mr. Diez Canseco has a strong commitment towards fostering education and providing opportunities for young entrepreneurs. He began his incursion into the education sector when he founded the preparatory academy San Ignacio de Loyola, in 1968, at the age of twenty. He followed this success with Peru’s first institution of higher technological education, in 1983, which became the country’s cornerstone of technological education. He also opened a primary and secondary-level school in 1990, considered one of the best bilingual schools in the country. In 1996, continuing on a trajectory of innovation in the education sector, the university opened its Graduate School, the first in Peru to offer a master’s degree in Business Administration (MBA), a double degree created through an international alliance. In 2007, the organization successfully opened San Ignacio College in Miami, Florida. Since opening its doors, Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola has offered educational programs with a high level of excellence. Today, USIL has nearly 18,000 students enrolled in different undergraduate and graduate programs. ACADEMIC CATALOG 2015 17 EDUCATIONAL MODEL Outcomes-Based Learning The Outcomes-Based Learning Model takes into account five principles for excellence in education: • A student-centered learning process • A track towards achieving competencies • An integrated curriculum • Teaching excellence • A culture of evaluation and continuous improvement In addition, through this model graduates are expected to achieve the professional and general competencies within the framework of the Institutional Mission. BILINGUAL EDUCATION USIL seeks to form bilingual entrepreneurs who know how to read, write, conduct research and develop cases in English, as well as dominate the technical vocabulary associated with their career of choice. To achieve this, the University has developed a curriculum that incorporates an intensive English program as well as General Education and Program courses taught in English. USIL graduates are able to compete and do business, not only in Peru, but also in the world. EDUCATION IN BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION There is an education in business administration embedded throughout all programs and majors. USIL equips each student with the knowledge to build and manage a business regardless of his or her field of study. This provides them with strategic vision, and creates a more valued professional. INSTITUTIONAL PILLARS conscious of their responsibilities as citizens to overcome inequality, combat extreme poverty and promote inclusivity. GLOBALIZATION Globalization embodies USIL’s commitment to developing in students the ability to perform effectively and efficiently anywhere in the world. Through more than a hundred strategic alliances with academic institutions around the world, a corporate presence in different countries, and a bilingual curriculum, USIL offers its students a global vision and the highest international standards. DEVELOPMENT Development reflects USIL’s commitment to contributing to national development by providing students with a deeper knowledge of local characteristics, a sense of belonging, and pride in one’s own culture. This creates citizens who are committed to their country’s progress, and who possess a broad, holistic and informed vision of their national reality. GENERAL COMPETENCIES USIL has identified five key general competencies that are fundamental in shaping professionals who are responsive to the needs of a modern and globalized environment. • Communication Skills • Bilingual Communication • Investigación • Resource Management • Human Development These same general competencies are considered for USIL’s undergraduate programs as well as for Undergraduate Programs for Working Adults (CPEL). USIL guides its educational activities on the basis of four strategic pillars: Entrepreneurship, Social Responsibility, Globalization and Development. All five general competencies are linked to USIL’s mission to shape competent professionals and entrepreneurs, who are socially responsible and capable of performing successfully, both domestically and internationally. ENTREPRENEURSHIP COMMUNICATION SKILLS Entrepreneurship is at the heart of USIL’s institutional philosophy. USIL cultivates an entrepreneurial culture and spirit that promote innovation, leadership, competitiveness and value creation, and allows students to identify and make the most of business opportunities. SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY Social responsibility reflects USIL’s commitment to contributing to the overall social development of Peru, as well as to the well-being and improved quality of life of people with lower incomes. The University puts solidarity into action by implementing activities oriented towards sustainable development and makes young people more Communication skills make it possible for a person to use diverse linguistic tools to carry out business. This is a fundamental competency for learning and networking at USIL. BILINGUAL COMMUNICATION Bilingual communication means mastering two different languages (at USIL it signifies achieving English language proficiency) so that students can benefit from interacting with people from other cultures. ACADEMIC CATALOG 2015 19 RESEARCH As a general competency, research makes it possible to propose solutions to applied problems or to discover new knowledge through critical inquiry about reality and scientific advances in one’s discipline, examining and analyzing new information, applying critical thinking to evidence found and communicating one’s ideas in a formal manner to improve people’s quality of life. RESOURCE MANAGEMENT This competency relates to students’ abilities to put together, lead, analyze and follow through on projects. CANDIDATE INPUT HUMAN DEVELOPMENT This competency allows a person to act with autonomy and to reach his or her personal goals. INSTITUTIONAL ADMINISTRATION We are an institution that strives for academic excellence to ensure the continuous improvement of our educational model and perform effective follow up of our program completers and graduates. The table below shows the student retention and job placement indicators that resulting from university performance between June 2013 and July 2014*. STUDENT ACADEMIC SERVICE AND SUPPLEMENTARY SEVICES GRADUATE EMPLOYEE OUTPUT JOB MARKET RETENTION RATE: LA MOLINA CAMPUS: 80% LIMA NORTE CAMPUS: 72% JOB PLACEMENT RATE:** LA MOLINA CAMPUS: 81% LIMA NORTE CAMPUS: 71% *The formula used to calculate the Retention Rate and Job Placement Rate is the one employed by the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS). **The calculation of the Job Placement rate includes all program completers and graduates who are employed in a job position that is directly or partly related to their academic major field of study. Factors which have an impact on this indicator include those who are unemployed but seeking employment, those who have decided not to work just yet because they decided to take some voluntary time off and those who were not contacted. Factors which have no impact on this indicator include those that are unable to work for various reasons (pregnancy, parenting, studying for a masters degree, or otherwise unable to work for justifiable reasons). 20 ACADEMIC CATALOG 2015 DEGREE-GRANTING AUTHORITY According to Law No. 23733, University Act in force for the creation of the Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola, the National Council for Approval of Operation of Universities (CONAFU) was an autonomous body of the National Assembly of Presidents, who was responsible for authorizing or denying operation of Peruvian universities. The process began with the issuance of a provisional authorization after an ongoing evaluation of at least five (5) years, allowed obtaining final authorization operation. The Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola obtained provisional operational approval through Resolution No. 060-95-CONAFU, dated December 7th, 1995, which also allowed the issuance of its first seven undergraduate careers. Later, after 5 years under the constant supervision of the National Assembly of Presidents, USIL scored the final operating permit pursuant with Resolution No. 159-2001-CONAFU, dated July 24th, 2001, which granted full authority to offer recognized professional programs and its university autonomy as established by the Peruvian State Constitution. Later, through Resolution No. 1654-2001 ANR, dated December 7th, 2001, the National Assembly of Presidents issued a favorable ruling for the operation of the Graduated School of the Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola. A new recently law No. 30220 has been enacted and became effective on July 10th, 2014 ACADEMIC CATALOG 2015 23 PROGRAM ADVISORY COMMITTEE (PAC) The role of Program Advisory Committees (PAC) is to provide advice to the different Colleges, Programs and Deanships of the University to assure an educational proposition that can clearly ingrain in our students the competencies, knowledge and abilities required at the time of graduation, as well as the curriculum and methodology to help in this process. At the same time, the PAC contributes to the optimal cultural, academic and pedagogical development of the institution, taking into account the mission of USIL and the international and national standards for quality in education. The Program Advisory Committees are comprised of five (5) to ten (10) advisors, who are nominated by the corresponding Program Director and/or Dean and are approved by Presidential Resolution. The members of the PAC serve ad-honorem for a two-year term which is renewed automatically. Members of the PAC are professionals who represent prestigious institutions or who have had an exemplary independent professional trajectory. They belong to different business sectors both in the public and private arenas, they represent multiple perspectives, and their roles and functions are in sync with those of the programs they represent. The PAC’s main function is to provide advice on topics related to the curriculum, undergraduate internships, employability, new faculty, pedagogical and entrepreneurial aspects, and academic aspects of a program. In addition they help promote social responsibility and social projection in faculty as well as students and graduates. ACADEMIC CATALOG 2015 25 FACULTY A key element in providing a quality education is the role our faculty plays in students’ academic and personal development. USIL ensures that faculty members possess the appropriate competencies and academic degrees to fulfill their role as educators. Teachers must meet the minimum teaching credential requirements of having a Master’s or Doctorate Degree in the field of the course to be taught, or have acquired substantial professional experience in the specific field. Faculty must have ample dominion over their material and must apply diverse methodological and evaluative strategies that advance the formative process. This assures a stimulating learning environment that boosts students’ confidence and motivates them to live experiences inside and outside the classroom that will help them achieve competencies in their personal, professional and social life. Please refer to Annex Full-Time Faculty of this catalog for a complete list of full-time faculty. ACADEMIC FREEDOM 1 The instructor is entitled to full freedom in research and in the publication of the results, subject to the adequate performance of his or her other academic duties; but research for pecuniary return should be based upon an understanding with the authorities of the institution. 2 The instructor is entitled to freedom in the classroom in discussing his or her subject, but he or she should be careful not to introduce into ones teaching controversial matter, which has no relation to the subject. Limitations of academic freedom because of religious or other aims of the institution should be clearly stated in writing at the time of the appointment. 3 The college or university instructor is a citizen, a member of a learned profession, and an officer of an educational institution. When he or she speaks or writes as a citizen, one should be free from institutional censorship or discipline, but his or her special position in the community imposes special obligations. As a man or woman of learning and an educational officer, one should remember that the public may judge his or her profession and his or her institution by ones utterances.

Situated at an altitude of approximately 2335 m.a.s.l. Arequipa is endowed with many structures dating back to the Spanish Colonial period that are built with “sillar”, a white volcanic stone, which is the reason why the city is referred to as “The White City”. Arequipa is a large commercial hub in the southern region of Peru and as such it needs academic programs that support and foster growth. In response to the needs of this market, USIL recently inaugurated the Arequipa Learning Center with a 130m2 structure that houses two modern classrooms for students in graduate programs and other studies.

GRADING SYSTEM AND GRADING EQUIVALENCIES STANDARD UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS The grading system for all courses is a twenty-point system. The minimum passing grade is 11. Grades for all individual and group evaluations are stated in whole numbers. Fractions greater than or equal to 0.5 are rounded up to the next higher integer, to the student’s benefit, while numbers with decimal places lower than 0.5 are rounded down. Similarly, the categories of the evaluation system (the average of continuous assessment, the midterm exam, the final exam and the final course grade) are rounded to whole numbers. Fractions greater than or equal to 0.5 are rounded up to the next higher integer, to the student’s benefit, while numbers with decimal places lower than 0.5 are rounded down. The final grade for a course is the weighted average of the continuous assessment, midterm exam and final exam categories. ACADEMIC CATALOG 2015 65 A student’s weighted cumulative grade point average is obtained by adding the products of the final grade for each course (passing and failing) and the corresponding number of credits, and then dividing that number by the sum of the credits for the courses taken over the course of the student’s studies in his or her academic program, including courses taking during the summer. Weighted cumulative averages are rounded to two decimal places. In the case of an internal transfer, the student’s applicable weighted cumulative grade point average includes only final (passing and failing) grades obtained for the courses transferred and those taken following the change of major. A student’s weighted semester grade point average is obtained by adding the products of the final (passing and failing) grade for each course taken during a given semester and the corresponding number of credits, and then dividing that number by the sum of the credits for the courses taken during the semester. Weighted semester averages are rounded to two decimal places. A semester grade lower than 10.5 is considered a failing grade. USIL Grading System U.S. Equivalency Grading 20 A+ 19 A 18 A 17 A- 16 B+ 15 B 14 B- 13 C+ 12 C 11 C- 0-10 F The Office of Academic Records processes the course grade reports for the academic period. The teacher of the course formalizes the transmission of grades to Academic Records either by an electronic or physical data sheet. STUDENT ASSESSMENTS STANDARD UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS The evaluation of learning is a continuous, systematic, participative, flexible pedagogical process which is part of the teaching/learning process. It fulfills two functions, pedagogical and social, and has two aims, educational and informative. The evaluation system is defined in the syllabus for each course, in which evaluations and their percentage of the weighted average for the course are listed. Continuous assessment consists of tests, quizzes on reading assignments, projects, written assignments, presentations, etc. that may be individual or group work. This is not an all inclusive list; nor is it intended to exclude other types of evaluation. The calculation of the Continuous Assessment grade is shown in detail in the syllabus for each course. The Similarly, the categories within the system of evaluation (average quiz and continuous assessment grade, average midterm exam grade, average final exam grade and the final course grade) are rounded to whole numbers. All grades with a decimal fraction greater than or equal to 0.5 will be rounded up to the next higher whole number ACADEMIC CATALOG 2015 RECORDING OF GRADES As an exception, the evaluation system may be modified according to the nature of the course. All individual or group assessment grades are rounded to whole integers. Thus, a grade with a decimal fraction greater than or equal to 0.5 will be rounded up to the next higher whole number; and grades with a decimal fraction of less than 0.5 are rounded down to the next lower whole number. 66 The final course grade is the weighted average of the quiz and continuous assessment grades and final exam. Evaluation categories include: a. Continuous assessment. b. Midterm exam. c. Final exam. UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS FOR WORKING ADULTS (CPEL) The grade scale is based on a 20 point system. minimum passing grade is eleven. (11). to the student’s benefit; and grades with a decimal fraction of less than 0.5 are rounded down to the next lower whole number. The schedule for midterm and final exams is published on the institutional platform, stating the date, time and place each exam will be held. Midterm and final exam weeks are part of the academic period. A student who fails to take any of the evaluations included in the Continuous Assessment grade may make up only one of them, provided that the possibility of a make-up is indicated in the syllabus. The Academic Calendar indicates the deadline for requesting a make-up evaluation, the payment date for the make-up fee and the date on which make-up evaluations will be given. A make-up evaluation covers all of the topics included in the syllabus for the course and replaces the evaluation not taken. A student who fails to take a mid-term or final exam on the date indicated on the Academic Calendar may take a make-up exam. The grade on the make-up exam will replace the grade for the exam not taken. Students have a period of 2 (two) calendar days starting on the day following their absence to request a make-up exam via the institutional platform and make the corresponding payment. Evaluations take place in a face-to-face manner on the university campus or at sites authorized for the purpose by the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs. Students will be notified in advance if the venue is not where the class usually meets. Virtual Campus evaluations are an exception. Mid-term and final exams for e-learning courses take place in a face-to-face manner at locations established by the university. Academic Services and Records is responsible for administering midterm, final and make-up exams. Course instructors turn grades in to Academic Services and Records in physical or electronic records. Academic Services and Records manages evaluation records for the courses scheduled for the semester. UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS FOR WORKING ADULTS (CPEL) The assessment system is adapted to the University´s educational model. Student assessments are continuous throughout the academic period. The assessment system is defined in the syllabus of each course which explains the assessments and percentage assigned to the weighted average grade for the course. The categories of the assessment system are as follows: GRADING APPEALS PROCEDURES Standard Undergraduate Programs and Undergraduate Programs for Working Adults (CPEL) The following procedures must be followed when requesting the review or reconsideration of grades: For Continuous Assessment (quizzes, controls, laboratories, etc.) and Mid Term Exams: Complete application form F-405 (Grade Review and Reconsideration) at the time the assessment is returned to you by the teacher. Students may formally process their review and reconsideration, with valid supporting arguments, only on the date and at the times scheduled. This procedure must be completed without leaving the classroom. In the event the request is approved, the teacher shall request the relevant correction. The response given by this process of grade reconsideration is not subject to appeal. FOR FINAL EXAMS: Once final exams and final make-up exams are completed, the Office of Academic Services schedules the return of same using a Return Roll Call Schedule. Students may only formally process its review and reconsideration on the date and time provided, in the event that there are justifiable reasons, by completing the Grade Review and Reconsideration application form (F-405) provided by those responsible for exam returns, within the classroom and with valid justification. This form must be filled out and include the proper justification to allow those responsible to arrive at a decision. 1. Continuous Assessment 2. Final Exam Course Load As an exception, the assessment system may be modified to adapt to the nature of a particular course. STANDARD UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS Continuous evaluation consists of quizzes, reading control quizzes, projects, study activities, presentations, etc which can be performed as an individual or in groups. This is not an exhaustive or exclusive list of all the other types of assessment. The calculation of the continuous assessment is explained in the course syllabus. In the event that the assessment system includes the elimination of the lowest grade, any zero (0) grade handed out as a result of voiding the student’s test due to any restriction is excluded from such elimination. The maximum number of eligible credits for enrollment is determined by the academic performance of students in their academic program, taking only the grade point average of the most recent completed regular academic semester into account. The eligible credit enrollment ranges are shown below according to the students’ Academic Record, as published on INFOSIL: i. 1st Enrollment Range, maximum: 25 credits ii. 2nd Enrollment Range maximum: 22 credits iii. 3rd Enrollment Range maximum: 21 credits iv. 4to Enrollment Range maximum: 18 credits Excluded from the scope of this regulation are students pertaining to the Competency Based Education ACADEMIC CATALOG 2015 67 Curriculum, who may enroll in a maximum of 20 credits according to their curriculum. Starting in Semester 2013 - II, in the event of a discrepancy between this statement and Article 61 of the Academic Regulations, the following shall take priority. Students who enroll in fewer than thirteen (13) credits must undergo the relevant process in the Office of Credit and Collections. To be eligible to enroll in a course the student must have passed the pre requisite courses and/or the minimum number of credits required for same. The student who fails a course must take the same course again within the next two (2) periods in which the course is available. If the student fails the course a second time he or she must take it again the following semester. Up until Semester I - 2013, students who enroll in a mandatory course for the third time are permitted to enroll only in a maximum of sixteen (16) academic credits. As of Semester II - 2013, in this same case, the maximum number of credits permitted shall be twelve (12), as provided under Title III of these regulations. Enrollment in more than two courses that are being taken for the third time in the same semester is not permitted. Students are not allowed to enroll in courses with have schedules that coincide. To be eligible to participate in exchange programs, students must have passed at least sixty (60) academic credits in addition to the Global Leadership Skills workshop course. Undergraduate Programs for Working Adults (CPEL) Enrollment is carried out in each academic period and is subject to the conditions set forth under Article 18 of the CPEL Academic Regulations, except for restrictions established in Title III, Satisfactory Academic Progress – PAS in the same document. General Education General Education at USIL consists of four principal areas which favor the intellectual development and future professional performance of the students: Natural Science and Mathematics, Social and Behavioral Sciences, Humanities and Fine Arts, and a unique grouping of USIL Mission-Related courses which are designed to help students perform both nationally and internationally. The General Education component requires more than 30 hours per semester for bachelor programs. Each 68 ACADEMIC CATALOG 2015 program requires completion of a minimum of 48 credits in General Education, designed to strengthen the personal and academic competencies of the students, without focusing on specific professional areas of study. As such, the number of General Education courses by program is significant at USIL and all programs include courses in the four areas of knowledge. USIL’s General Education courses also contribute to the development of five general competencies in students: Communication Skills, Critical Thinking, Resource Management, Bilingual Communication and Human Development. Development of these competencies is fundamental in shaping professionals who are enterprising, socially responsible, and responsive to the needs of our modern globalized environment. ACADEMIC PROGRESS Satisfactory academic progress is assessed each semester by validating levels of compliance with the following standards: 1. Semester grade point average (PPP). 2. Passing grades in courses passed. 3. Total number credits studied during the student’s stay at the University. Academic progress is found to be satisfactory if the student: 1. Obtains a grade point average for the academic period (PPP) greater than or equal to 10.5 2. Passes 100% of the courses in which the student is enrolled 3. Studies a maximum of 1.5 times the total number of credits of the academic program during the student’s stay at the University. Every semester, the system for following up on academic progress calculates weighted semester grade point averages and the number of consecutive times a student has had an unsatisfactory grade point average (under 10.5), in order to contribute to the analysis of academic progress. Evaluation of Academic Progress If a student meets the standards set forth in Satisfactory academic progress in a given semester, he/she will have a satisfactory status. In the event that a student fails to meet one or more of these standards, he/she is placed on academic probation, and his/her status is recorded in the academic system. A student is taken off academic probation when he/she remedies the cause for this status. Satisfactory status qualifies a student to take the maximum number of credits allowed per semester, according to the curriculum for his/her program. Additionally, students are ranked in the following percentiles: a) Top fifth percentile. b) Top third percentile. c) Top half percentile. A student is placed on academic probation if he/she: a) Has to take one or more courses for a third time b) Has a failing weighted semester grade point average c) Has exceeded the limit of 1.5 the total number of credits for the program. grade for the third time in the first module. Withdrawal from a semester voids all credits approved during the semester and the course taken counter will return to as it was prior to the start of the semester from which the student is withdrawing. The university informs the student of his/her academic probation status and establishes the intervention required to assist him/her with his/her academic performance. Students may choose to withdraw from a module during their stay at the University and in the semester in which it was requested. The courses from which a student withdraws in that module can no longer form part of a subsequent course withdrawal.

The philosophy of science in the Ancient era was aimed at representing reality as it supposedly was in itself, while the philosophy of science in the Modern era was aimed at representing reality subjectivity. However, in the Contemporary era of the mid twentieth century, there was a historical and instrumental turnaround, due to which there was no longer interest in asking whether science represents reality itself (the question from the Ancient era) or if science only represents reality according to subjectivity (the question from the Modern era). Currently, interest is centered on the instrumentalism by which criteria for determining when a theory is more explicative than another are established. The course presents contemporary philosophical reflections on science. Four proposals on science will be presented according to which: first, reality comprises regularities prior to the orderly intervention of theories (ontology); second, nomological and refutable explanations are the only valid ones (methodological); third, prediction of the future makes scientific knowledge in development power (instrumentalism); and fourth, science is distinguished from pseudo-science (demarcation).

Within this context, the development of today’s commerce, where thousands of contracts and all types of transactions are executed every day, often involving counterparts from different nationalities and languages, needs for the disputes that arise be resolved through a dynamic, swift, specialized and neutral mechanism which ensures protection for both parties. Arbitration is one of these mechanisms because its flexible design based on the will of the parties, enables them to come to prior agreement on the rules and the mechanism used to appoint the arbitrators that will enable the resolution of those disputes that may arise. For this reason, it is no coincidence that legislation associated with arbitration has been on the rise for just the past decade and that the promotion and use of arbitration has also become institutionally more intense over the past few years. We dare to think that the modern world needs arbitration as if it was “capital” for justice. For developing countries such as ours, this is an irrefutable truth, and thus rejecting it, remaining ignorant about it can only cause us to “miss the train” in terms of time and progress. In that order of ideas, it is essential for legal professionals to study and analyze this basic conflict management tool, particularly when the government justice system has demonstrated countless failures in the settlement of disputes.

ACADEMIC PROGRESs Satisfactory academic progress is assessed each semester by validating levels of compliance with the following standards: Semester grade point average (PPP) Passing grades in courses passed Total number credits studied during the student’s stay at the USIL Graduate School Academic progress is found to be satisfactory if the student: Obtains a grade point average for the academic period (PPP) greater than or equal to 10.5 Passes 100% of the courses in which the student is enrolled. Studies a maximum of 1.5 times the total number of credits of the academic program during the student’s stay at the USIL Graduate School The grade point average for the semester (PPP) is the weighted average of all courses having a final grade, passing or failing, taken during a given semester. A completed credit is that which has been obtained by taking a course in which the student has enrolled and received a final grade, passing or failing. Withdrawal from a course and/or withdrawal from a semester do not lead to a completed credit. In the case of incoming students through outside transfer, the maximum number of credits that a student can study is adjusted in each case according to the number of credits which have been validated and recognized. The maximum number of credits that a student can take is equal to 1.5 times the difference between the total credits from the academic program and the validated credits. In the case of internal transfers, the credits studied corresponding to the validated courses shall be considered within the maximum of 1.5 times the total number of credits in the program. Moreover, common courses in each academic program shall consider courses taken in the event that any of them was not validated due to a failing grade. Recording of grades Grade reports include three assessment criteria: class participation, quizzes based on readings, and final exam. Teachers may add other activities to the course assessment and calculate the average based on the assessment criteria described in the course syllabus. Grade reports will be delivered to the Office of Academic Services and Records in physical form and signed by the teacher. The final course grade is the average of the three criteria of assessment, which may apply different weights, but added together equals one hundred percent. The weighted percentage assigned to class participation grade may not exceed 20%. Assessments • Assessments can be of the following types: written assessments (graded practice reading tests, problem cases, partial or final exams), application works (written document and / or defense, individual or group), and class participation. • The course syllabus is a document binding on the student and teacher, in which the characteristics, frequency and weighted evaluations are described. • Each teacher is responsible for the issuance of a course, notify in writing the evaluation system for students (syllabus - including the percentages in each evaluation criterion), at the beginning of the course, taking into account the particular characteristics. • The student is required to perform and / or present the evaluation and / or implementation work within the deadlines set by the course teacher. The delivery of the work at a later date will be up a score of zero (0.00) without any claim whatsoever. • Entries written application can be submitted printed (physical) or in a digital format in the Services and Academic Records or directly to the course, on the date stated and as detailed or described in the course syllabus. If the teacher authorizes the delivery via email, they should be further sent to the Academic Services and Records Area email ([email protected]. pe mail) with a copy to the teacher email described in the syllabus. Students are responsible for verifying the correct shipping and receiving messages sent electronically. • The student who for failure cannot perform an assessment (test, control reading, practice, or other) may apply only to the Program Coordinator for a recovery within a period no longer than 48 hours from the date of the assessment. If the student makes their application to other areas of the Graduate School and / or after this deadline your application will not be valid. • To present each recovery the student must have paid previously existing rights established for this purpose. Reprogramming of controls or reading practices is only once. • Students can only access untimely assessments or remediation courses, if they are current on their payments according to the Office of Credit and Collections report. • The Program Coordinator will authorize the extemporaneous assessment and the Academic and Registration Service area will determine the date of recovery after coordination with the teacher and this date cannot be postponed. • A student may request untimely assessments for a maximum of two (02) written evaluations. • If the student does not submit to the untimely assessment rescheduled date and time it will correspond a grade of zero (0.00) without a claim. Review and reconsideration of grades • If the student is not satisfied with any of their written skills or job application (which does not have the exposure component) may file a request for review and reconsideration of sustained grades (including the evidence necessary) within seven (07) calendar days from the date of delivery of the qualifications in the Student Service Platform. After this period, it is understood that the student agrees with the rating assigned to evaluation and automatically lose the right to request review and reconsideration. The procedure for the review and reconsideration includes up to two instances. • Review and reconsideration in the first instance: Students must apply at the Student Service Platform filling the respective written format. Such requests will be evaluated by the course instructor within a maximum of seven (07) calendar days and Platform Support Student will contact the student’s date from which he can pick up the result of his application. • Review and reconsideration on appeal: If the student is not satisfied with the score obtained after completion of the review and reconsideration in the first instance, may apply through the Program Coordinator, a second review, submitting the form with arguments of his application and evidence to support it, to the Academic Committee; for it has a maximum of seven (07) calendar days from the date on which the outcome of their application in first instance was available in the Student Service Platform. The Academic Committee may accept or reject the request. If it is accepted, the Academic Committee will select at its discretion the teacher or teachers responsible for the second review of the evaluation. The result of such assessment shall be final and cannot be appealed. • The result of any request for review and reconsideration of ratings may result in an increase, a decrease or ratification of the note given by the course instructor. • The rating of “class participation” granted by the course ACADEMIC CATALOG 2015 337 instructor shall be final and cannot be appealed, and shall not exceed 20% of the composition of the course evaluation system. Correction of Courses • The course correction must be made when a student has failed a course and still maintain the possibility of a new registration. The removal of a course can be completed in two ways: A. Regular Registration: Students must complete the registration process on the course with other promotion for that matter will request approval from the Academic Board and cancel the total amount of the course according to the current rate. B. Competency Assessment: The student whose final average is less than 12 but greater than or equal to 10.00 may request a competency assessment course for that matter shall request authorization to the Academic Board and cancel the amount according to the current rate. The minimum passing grade for the course is 12.00. • If the student disapproves an elective course he can correct it with a different elective that the one disapproved. For this he must request permission from the Academic Board tuition. • If the student files a request for review and reconsideration of grades for a course disapproved which is a prerequisite of another, and the final decision on his claim extends after enrollment the following year, it will automatically conditioned the final outcome of the assessment of his application. • The competency evaluation may be requested only up to two (02) opportunities throughout the program. Students cannot perform competency assessment in one course. • Once approved competency evaluation, the student must file it within the time limits specified in communicating SSRRAA. If the student does not perform the evaluation he will lose the option to correct the course in the form of Regular Registration.

One of the main aspects associated with the poor levels of quality education is related to student learning outcomes, which are becoming more visible and can be better developed when a school adopts a competency based education model. Therefore, in order to achieve quality learning outcomes, it becomes essential to have a complete understanding of this curricular approach, because it enables academic institutions and educators to prepare learning processes and units in accordance with performance standards and criteria derived from the demonstration of the expected learning outcomes. Therefore, competency based education is a fundamental tool that enables us to establish clear and effective educational objectives and strategies by defining the standards that the student graduating from a given level or program should exhibit. In this context, the competency based curricular method serves to introduce a rationale to the outcomes and processes, but it also emphasizes the needs of actors in society and the environmental setting above the interests of teachers and researchers or administrators. The Masters Degree in Competency Based Assessment is an academic program that seeks to prepare experts and specialists in development, design, analysis, implementation, validation and improvements of competency based educational solutions at the different levels of the academic and professional formation systems, within a framework of educating individuals over the course of their entire lives and careers.
