9. Corroboration / validation of the discipline content according to the expectations of the epistemic
community representatives, of the ones of the professional associations and also of the representative
employers of the corresponding program.
In any economic field there are required minimal skills to present and describe the most important characteristics of
some specific conflict situations. In this context, Logic is the course which provides the students the tools for
reasoning real situations. Therefore, it is a course of vital importance for the professional development of any
undergraduate in any economic field.
