The course is designed for practising managers, and those who will become managers in the foreseeable future, who wish to upgrade their professional qualifications.
The course provides a broad, comprehensive and forward looking orientation and equips students to research, monitor, analyse and make effective decisions in relation to the complex issues confronting the modern manager at both strategic and operational levels.

Applicants are required to have an undergraduate degree from a recognised Australian tertiary institution or a qualification deemed to be equivalent. Applicants with other academic and/or professional qualifications and/or work experience acceptable to the University will be considered.
Credit up to a maximum of five subjects of the 12 subject course, may be given to a student who has completed equivalent study at Masters level at a recognised tertiary institution.
Exemption from a subject may be granted where a student has passed at an appropriate level a subject substantially similar in content to a subject of the Masters course, but has not claimed or been granted a credit. An alternative subject from the Master of Business program will be taken as a substitute. Exemption (and consequent substitution) occurs to prevent repetition of study of a subject area. Exemption does not reduce the number of subjects needed to complete the course requirements.
To graduate, students must complete a total of 12 compulsory subjects including a final session research project.
Students are advised to carefully check subject availability and prerequisites as not all subjects are offered every session. A list of subjects on offer will be mailed to distance education students.
