The Master of Business Administration aims to provide students with the ability to identify the marketing, legal, management, financial, human resource and economic systems of various foreign cultures as they affect international business.
Students will analyse cross-cultural functional skills and techniques needed to become effective managers in an international business or international human resource management environment, and be shown how to make sound decisions with respect to the formulation and implementation of international business or international human resource management strategies.
The course has been designed to provide students with the ability to manage international business operations and staff in cross-cultural work settings effectively, taking into account varying cultural and organisational backgrounds.
Fees apply, however a small number of HECS funded places are currently available for on campus study.

Both strands of the MBA consist of 12 compulsory subjects, six of which are common to both strands. In addition, all students, irrespective of their mode of study, undertake a three stage International Business Skills component which is incorporated in the annual compulsory course based residential school. There are no electives in the course, although the International Business Skills component allows students to undertake a project in an area of particular interest to the student. Students are also expected to develop a satisfactory level of competence in a foreign language during their studentship. This also forms part of the International Business Skills component.
Those students required to do the preliminary program undertake four compulsory subjects prior to the 12 subject MBA.
A compulsory course based residential school is held annually in Wagga Wagga, usually in April.
