After graduating as an economist from the National University of Mexico (UNAM) and the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), Salvador worked in the Foreign Affairs Ministry of Mexico before moving to the private sector to become the Head of International Negotiations in the National Association of Importers and Exporters of Mexico.
After completing with his MA in International Development (Economics), focusing upon Public-Private Partnerships for Private Sector Development, he secured a position with the British Foreign & Commonwealth Office as Economic Development Manager based in Mexico City.
He recalls his time at BSIS with great fondness and is certain that the experience and quality of the programme helped him achieve his professional goals.
‘I think one of the key attributes of BSIS is its fabulous location for networking and the world of possibilities around Brussels, the school is very well connected and provides access to many think-tanks and institutions that complement and enhance the scope of just one Masters degree. It turns a theoretical degree into a very practical way of learning’.
‘I strongly recommend BSIS to anyone who thinks about getting trained for a future in international affairs. I know it was like that for me’
