Why study the Master of Business?

The Master of Business is for people aspiring to management roles, current managers seeking formal qualifications & those changing career direction. The program will help to further develop your business skills, build specialist knowledge within your chosen area & accelerate your career.

The MBus offers two entry points depending on your previous studies. The Master (1.5 years) is designed for graduates with a Bachelor's degree in the same discipline. The Master (2 years) includes the core fundamentals of general management for graduates with a Bachelor's degree from any discipline. Both Masters provide an opportunity to specialise in two fields or additional research electives.

You can specialise in advertising, HR management, information systems, innovation & entrepreneurship, international business, leadership, marketing, social impact & sustainability or supply chain management.

This program does not presume prior knowledge or training in any of the available fields of study. Students who have studied in a cognate area should carefully consider how each field extends their specialist expertise & supports their future career plan.
