Master of Business Systems by research is offered by the School of Business
Systems. The aim of the program is to provide training and research in the
analysis, design, development and application of computer systems to the
management of business operations. This involves the study of business-related
techniques, practices and procedures in areas such as management, commercial,
financial, health and industrial systems leading to an understanding of the
application of computer systems and information technology for business
purposes.
The research undertaken reflects the current interests of the school. The
results are presented in a thesis which must demonstrate wide reading and
understanding. In addition to writing the thesis, the candidate will be
required to present a research proposal and write and present a working paper
