Asignaturas InterdisciplinaresStrategic and Human Skills through Chess Principles

Without strategy knowledge is meaningless

This course is not only about chess. It is about the strategy needed to win under any circumstance. Sometimes people think that they know it all, but we know just part of the truth. Here you will not find the truth indeed you will find the strategy to win without it. Like chess? Like Game of Thrones? Like research? Like to win or at least lose the game honorably?

Then this is a course you will enjoy. We will play games but most important we will analyze the game and have fun understanding strategy as a way of living. Remember that you cannot stand still, life is a constant change and everything is moving around us, what will be your next move?
