Like most MBAs, our program offers a deep understanding of finance, marketing and strategy. But you’ll also learn how to harness big data, leverage the power of creativity, explore the nature of complex systems and lead teams in a digital world. The program is delivered in an intensive format, where you will complete two units of study at a time over a seven- to eight- week period and additionally, you will have the option to undertake an internship. 

The city of Sydney is Australia’s financial and start-up capital, home to the Australian Securities Exchange, the headquarters of 90 banks and more than half of Australia’s top companies. Sydney is also one of the world’s most iconic cities. It ranks second on a list of the 50 best cities in the world in which to live, work and study.
