The Business School prides itself on the quality of leaders it produces, and is at the forefront of management research, with credit to our internationally renowned management experts.

Entrepreneurship and innovation

Become an agent of change. Entrepreneurs play a key role in the economy by bringing new products and services to market and solving social problems.

Our programs help develop the skills to put innovative new ideas into practice, raise finance and think through topics such as strategy, pricing and business models. Our social entrepreneurship programs will give you an in-depth understanding of this powerful new business model with the opportunity to gain real industry experience working in social enterprise.

Information systems

The digital economy means big business. With the rise of digitalisation and technology, businesses today rely on information technology and information systems for all aspects of their operations. Professionals who understand data analytics, process improvement and system design skills are highly sought after in all industries.

International business

In today’s globally connected marketplace, professionals must understand all aspects of cross-border activities.

Our programs equip you with the fundamental knowledge required to operate businesses internationally while building graduates' ability to understand the opportunities and associated risks.

Leadership

In a complex and turbulent environment, traditional business knowledge is no longer enough. Leaders require intuition and emotional intelligence, strong communication skills, and sound values and judgement.

The Business School's leadership offerings help you develop core capabilities like these to create effective and responsible leaders who can adapt to changing circumstances and have a positive impact on their business and society.

Marketing and advertising

Marketing professionals understand what customers want and create, communicate, deliver and exchange offerings that they'll value.

Marketing itself is much more than advertising campaigns and logos. It’s a vital part of business operations, understanding customer behaviours, influencing decisions and building and retaining relationships with consumers and other organisations.

The Business School has over 40 years of experience in providing marketing education and research in the field.
