Deakin University's Master of Commerce degree is a professional business qualification that builds on an undergraduate qualification in any discipline. This degree gives students a sound understanding of business in addition to undergraduate qualifications in other professional areas. The Master of Commerce is suitable for graduates in diverse fields (eg, Arts, Science, Nursing or Education) who wish to prepare themselves for a professional career by gaining a thorough knowledge of the key business disciplines. The range of specialisations allows students to pursue their interests and professional career development needs.
The Master of Commerce is a professional business qualification for graduates of any discipline - whether you are seeking to establish your career or are an experienced professional looking for new opportunities.
Initial employment opportunities tend to be discipline based, requiring a specialist qualification or skill as a crucial element for entry and access to subsequent opportunities. The Master of Commerce can enable recent graduates to move from the sidelines and have access to a great many of the opportunities the graduate market offers. It can give you the professional credentials for an extraordinary range of opportunities in Australia and overseas ranging from traditional vocations to the new economy.
All business and professional areas are broadening their responsibilities. The potential of adding a qualification in marketing, finance or electronic business is quite compelling for engineering, science or even legal professionals. Even in fields such as education, health or the broad range of social policy areas, there is now a commercial/economic imperative.
The Master of Commerce is a very effective means of increasing your capacity to work and succeed in this environment.
By choosing the appropriate units in the Master of Commerce students may satisfy the professional recognition requirements of CPA Australia, the Institute of Chartered Accountants Australia , the Institute of Certified Management Accountants or associate level with the Australian Computer Society.
