The Master of Business (Banking and Finance) by coursework and minor thesis
aims to provide a masters level of study for banking and finance professionals
from all levels who are seeking to deepen their level of knowledge and to
enhance their practical skills in the banking and finance industry.
The course comprises 16 units and is designed for two years of full-time study.
The first year consists of four core units and four electives. The second year
contains eight elective coursework units at an appropriate level.
Alternatively, students with excellent results in their first year of study may
undertake a minor thesis and five course units. Students wishing to undertake
the thesis option should complete AFC4100 (Research methods in accounting and
finance). This is only offered during the day in the March to June semester.
This unit may be taken as a second semester of study first year elective with
permission of the course director.
Applicants need to have completed, with an average grade of credit or above, a
degree from a recognised tertiary institution with at least an average grade of
credit, or, for entry into the second year, an honours degree in a relevant
discipline, or the Graduate Diploma in Banking and Finance, or an equivalent
qualification from a recognised tertiary institution. No credit for work done
previously is available in this masters degree.
This is a fee-paying course. Candidates should consult the Department of
Accounting and Finance as to the 2002 course fee. Course fees are set and
reviewed annually and are therefore subject to change.
Students who have completed a Graduate Diploma in Banking and Finance with an average grade of credit or equivalent will only need to complete year two units.
