Broad skills

You’ll get a broad foundation in modern business and explore how global connectivity impacts and influences the way business is done. Find out how companies successfully compete in the global business environment, and examine modern business theory, practice, and strategy.

You'll have access to a wide range of courses offered at the Wellington School of Business and Government and the option to specialise in a particular area, including accounting, government, information systems, management, or marketing.

If you want to complete a Master's with a focus on professional skills, rather than research, the MGBus is a good option for you.
