Many professionals will reach a threshold in their career where career progression can seem somewhat difficult or out of reach. This is often when an MBA is contemplated in order to overcome career hurdles, climb the corporate ladder or venture into a new area of business. Once the decision has been made to undertake an MBA, the next question might be whether to do a part-time, full-time or executive MBA.
We have designed three very different MBAs to cater to the demands of individuals at different stages of their career.
Our MBA, delivered part-time and in-person at our Sydney CBD campus, has a strong focus on developing the personal and interpersonal skills needed to lead in today’s hyper-connected, global environment. The program is underpinned by our unique approach to learning, which goes beyond the traditional classroom setting and requires students to deliver prototypes and effective solutions to actual business problems.
Our MBA (Leadership and Enterprise) is taught full-time over 18 months and has a precise limit on class size. You will ‘learn by doing’ through workshops with industry leaders, intensive group work, and tackling real-world issues with a diverse cohort of students from around the world.
Our Executive MBA gives you a range of unique experiences around the world - in different countries and organisations. Leadership is at the heart of our Executive MBA. We aim to create more self-aware leaders who are able to lead through disruption and ambiguity. Consulting projects for real organisations ensure that the learnings are both real and applied, so you can apply learnings immediately back into your own business.
