This 12-unit Master of Management has been designed to allow students the flexibility to select a course of study which enables them to develop the broad range of knowledge and skills required to be successful in the changing world of business. After foundation studies in management theory and leadership, students can tailor their studies to suit their individual requirements and interests by choosing a course of higher-level units from the graduate offerings of the Department of Management.

The degree can be completed either by a coursework option or by a coursework and research paper option.
Applicants require a pass degree or equivalent qualification from a recognised tertiary institution, or an executive certificate from this faculty with an average of credit or above. Candidates may be eligible for a maximum of eight credit exemptions for units considered to be equivalent to particular requirements in the course of study. Credit is restricted to study completed in the last five years. The course director assesses credit exemptions.
This is a fee-paying course. Candidates should consult the Department of Management as to the 2003 course fee. Course fees are set and reviewed annually and are therefore subject to change.
