Be a leader of agribusiness

Based in the heart of the Australian food, wine and agriculture industry, our Master of Agribusiness program is the first in Australia to provide the elite level of education required to create future food and agribusiness leaders through its unique mix of business fundamentals, practical experience and global connections.

With growing global populations and climate challenges impacting our ability to feed the world sustainably, our master degree prepares you to meet these challenges, and equips you for leadership and problem-solving in an ever-expanding and increasingly complex global marketplace.

Our Centre for Global Food and Resources has conducted extensive research with some of Australia's leading agribusiness firms to develop a program that effectively integrates academic knowledge with industry application. This degree will help you refine the practical research, advisory, and business skills necessary for a successful career in food and agricultural related industries.

You will

• complete a capstone research project that lets you showcase the skills you have learned across the program
• have access to two elective options that give you the flexibility to tailor your degree to your interests and career objectives, these electives including a full range of internship options with leading agribusiness companies.

The agribusiness value chain is one of Australia's largest and most important industry sectors. Recognised by the Australian Industry Skills Councils as a priority skill, agribusiness is forecast to continue providing positive labour outlooks for years to come.

With reports indicating there have been as many as six agri-business job openings per graduate, favourable employability outcomes exist for you in the local, national, and global value chain networks, including key areas such as: food retailers, processors, traders, producers, as well as a full range of service providers including financial agencies, agricultural consultancies and input and support suppliers.
