creative (boosting new ideas) and entrepreneurs
(risk taking based on knowledge, wisdom and ex-
perience.) The mission of the university is to train,
educate and instruct a person, i.e. make sure that
a student learns to draw the map of his life, being a
creator and a developer of his life projects.

take responsibility for what they learn. The university

tent, as well as special training courses.
