Our structure
The MBA degree offered by distance learning is designed
as an
intensive six term program. The
courses are scheduled to allow progressive development of themes
and course aims. Individual courses are given an international focus
from the Asia-Pacific perspective.
The sequence of courses allows for progression from foundation courses through to integrated and advanced courses. Some of the courses require successful completion of courses scheduled earlier before they can be undertaken (prerequisite courses). For example, Accounting for Decision Making is a prerequisite for Managerial Finance. Managerial Finance, Creative and Accountable Marketing and Leading and Managing People are prerequisites for Competitive Strategy and International Business.
