Our course aims to develop business managers, particularly business managers operating in an international context, with the capability of dealing with all aspects of an organisation's management. It is especially designed for those who have yet to gain significant work experience in business.
You will develop astute and informed leadership skills, with an emphasis being placed on interpersonal skills and exposure to business practice. The capacity for you to deliver innovative and feasible business strategies will be developed and you will gain a sound understanding of the principles of management appropriate to the international business environment.
The Deakin MBA(International) offers flexibility with units available both on campus at our Melbourne campus at Burwood and off campus. You will be supported by Deakin University’s extensive online facilities, and its support services thus allowing you to enjoy flexibility and quality in your study experience.
