During this period the curriculum was intensified, and the number of years of study required was increased. In 1950, the University sponsored the setting up of a Center of Training and Cooperativism (Centro de Entrenamiento y Cooperativismo) and the Department of Economic Coordination of the Union of Latin American Universities, with the support of the Organization of American States (OAS).

Juan Gómez Millas became Rector of the University in 1953, and was re-elected in 1958.

What is today our School grew to consist of six separate teaching bodies: the Schools of Economics of Santiago and Valparaíso, the School of Accounts and Auditing, the Center of Economic Planning, the Graduate Department, and the Economics Institute.
