Program Overview:
The Sydney MBA is a high quality generalist management degree.

It is designed to develop the skills, knowledge and competencies of managers and future managers who conduct business locally and internationally.

The composition of The Sydney MBA provides a wealth of valuable grounding for managers. It equips managers to not only oversee the day-to-day operations of the organisation but also, more broadly, to manage their people, manage their money, and manage their markets, and to do so with an appreciation of the value chain that the people, money and markets constitute. Emphasis is placed on functional and applied skills, complemented by cultural studies designed to enable managers to act sensitively, appropriately and effectively in the international business environment. With a mix of theory and practice throughout the program, The Sydney MBA is relevant and immediately applicable to your workplace.
