The MBT704 (combined with MMT732) tour is designed as a collaborative and independent guided learning experience with activities in multiple, international settings, held over ten days. There will be approximately 30 hours dedicated to actively engaging in learning and assessment activities. All assessment tasks take place while on the study tour.

The program is designed to be interactive, collaborative and reflective. The international experience will provide students with a greater understanding of how the business and cultural environment impacts on business and management decision making and how these insights can be transferred across international boundaries. |
