| | | Program Overview: | The MBA is designed to provide students with a range of analytical, strategic, cross-cultural and leadership skills, and is taught using a variety of learning and assessment strategies. The program offers a grounding in fundamental business areas such as accounting, finance, human resource management and industrial relations, economics, marketing, law and management. Analytic and problem solving skills are emphasised through an understanding of the theoretical framework within which today's managers must operate as well as the acquisition of practical skills in economics, quantitative methods, information management and strategic planning. The ability to cope with rapid organisational and technological change is developed through an understanding of organisational behaviour, information systems and organisational change and development. | | Study Mode: | Full Time, Part Time, Online, | | Program Locations: | Newcastle, Sydney, Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Online | | Fees Australian: | AUD$15,600 | | Fees International: | AUD$22,800 | | Fees Comment: | Online course fees are $15,600 for domestic students and $16,500 for internationals | | Program Specialisations: | Accounting, Finance, Economics, Organisational Behaviour, Information Systems and Marketing. | | Total Units: | The MBA program consists of twelve courses.

The program in which a student enrols is largely determined on the basis of qualifications and experience. Students with substantial work experience but who lack formal qualifications will probably enter at Graduate Certificate level. Students with relevant experience and a first degree will most likely enrol directly into the MBA program.
Students who enter at the Graduate Certificate level may, on completion of their program, proceed to the next award level with full credit for work completed at the lower level. Progression from the Graduate Certificate to the MBA is only available to students who achieve a Grade Point Average of 4.0 (a Pass grade) or greater. A minimum Grade Point Average of 4.0 after eight courses is required to remain in a 12 course Master degree program. | | Commencement Dates: | January, May or September | | Completion Time Comments: | 1 years or 3 semesters for full-time, 2 years or 6 semesters for part-time | | Application Deadline: | January, May, August | | Contact Address: | Graduate School of Business
