The Highlands High pedagogical curriculum is made up of three main types of subjects:
ADVANCING
They provide accelerated knowledge and higher-order thinking skills and strengthen attitudes to perform successfully at the university level.
SPECIALIZATION
These subjects personalize the curriculum and meet the needs and talents of each student, preparing them for their professional training.
RC FORMATION
They closely accompany the students towards a comprehensive harmonious development and give them the necessary tools to be leaders of positive action. They have the Regnum Christi formation seal.
INTEGRAL FORMATION
We work in four fundamental dimensions: Intellectual, Human, Spiritual and Apostolic formation. Students receive close and individual accompaniment to develop personal, interpersonal and leadership skills.
We will have a counselling department dedicated to accompanying students and their families in discovering their professional path and, consequently, their university profile. The counsellors will accompany the students in the application processes for admission to national and international universities, inside and outside our Network of Universities, and choose their professional orientation.
Christian Service Leadership
Through social pastoral care, we seek to contribute to the spiritual formation of our students, instilling Christian human values so that they become great leaders who impact with their authenticity and commitment to positive action.
