What Escuela de Posgrado does

Escuela de Posgrado is the graduate school division of the Universidad Nacional del Callao (UNAC), a public Peruvian university established in 1966 and operating from the Bellavista campus in Callao. It serves working professionals, recent graduates, and academic faculty through 50+ programs including 10 doctoral degrees, 34 master's degrees, 22 diplomados, and second-specialty programs across 12 faculties (Health Sciences, Industrial and Systems Engineering, Economics, Administration, Accounting, Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Fisheries, Environmental Engineering, Natural Sciences, and Education). Programs are delivered primarily on weekends (Saturdays and Sundays) to accommodate employed students, with selected events and conferences held virtually via Zoom. The school holds ISO 9001 (Quality Management) and ISO 21001 (Educational Organization Management) certifications awarded by LRQA, and has produced 1,000+ graduates with employer placements at Scotiabank Peru, Contraloría General de la República, Gobierno Regional del Callao, and MINEDU.

The school's core technology stack centers on the proprietary Sistema de Gestión de Investigación (SGI) platform for thesis lifecycle management, supported by an online enrollment portal and an AI-powered admissions chatbot ("Asistente Posgrado" / "Inteligencia Artificial UNAC"). Academic operations are backed by a network of 50+ institutional agreements including CONCYTEC, PROCIENCIA, RENACYT, SINEACE, AUIP, RPU, BIOINCUBA, and the UNAC Vice-Rectorship of Research. A new Master's in Artificial Intelligence and Data Sciences program, an SGI-integrated thesis support framework, and a weekly Viernes Científicos research conference series round out the academic product surface. Revenue is generated through tiered enrollment fees (S/. 200 Master's, S/. 250 Doctoral, S/. 120 Second Specialty), per-cycle tuition (S/. 100), monthly pensions (S/. 500 × 4 per semester), and milestone-based thesis and degree processing fees (ranging from S/. 50 observation resolution to S/. 2,512 degree conferral). Annual admissions follow a defined June-to-August enrollment window, with applications routed through the school's online portal, CV review, and virtual interview. As a public university entity, operations are also supported by Peruvian government appropriations.
