Executive Master of Business Administration (EMBA)

The Executive MBA is a practice-oriented graduate business degree, designed for experienced employees wishing to learn alongside like-minded people to advance leadership, business and management skills. You will typically be a team leader or a mid to high-level manager seeking to broaden your knowledge base and skill sets and take your career to the next level.

Delivered in an intensive 'block' study mode, you will be able to work and study to complete your Executive MBA in one year.

Entrepreneurial in theory and practice, the Executive MBA provides genuine global business insights that empower you to make a difference in your employer's organisation and the wider world.

The Executive MBA will provide you with the fundamentals of executive strategy and business management with an action learning-based approach. It will build on your professional experience adding greater depth to classroom discussions by sharing work challenges and solutions, helping you to flourish in a collaborative learning environment.

The eight courses in the Executive MBA comprised of intensive workshops across 13 months, provide an immersive learning experience. Although the eight courses are considered to be full time, the Executive MBA can be completed while working. Assignments will involve work-integrated projects that are relevant to your current organisation, while supporting your learning in each of the eight courses:
