description In Cuba, the Ministry of Higher Education prioritizes the management of knowledge and innovation for sustainable social economic development, however there are still deficiencies to reach appropriate levels of interconnection between the management of research and innovation and its impact on the territory and /or locality. In this sense, the academic programs of the universities are called to generate abilities and skills in the graduates that allow them to implement innovative strategies to solve the problems of the environment. In the present work, the projection of the Master's Program in Biotechnology is addressed in terms of strengthening innovation capacities in professionals, taking advantage of the potential offered by its curricular design, as part of its continuous improvement and in order to obtain more professionals, competent, trained and innovative. A bibliographic review was carried out in several databases, related to the development of innovation capacities from the postgraduate level, supported by scientific articles from the period between 2017 to 2022 and the characteristics of the curricular design of the Master's program were taken into account, the types of courses and their contents, in addition to the innovative contribution of each one of them to the academic training of the master students. The articulation of teaching methods, the carrying out of investigative activities, with innovative outputs, the methodological work, and the application of instruments for evaluating the innovation capacities of graduates and employers, will contribute to the continuous improvement of the program, to respond to the socioeconomic demands of the territory and the country.
