Handbook

The Master of Business Administration in Finance, or MBAX Finance, aims to equip managers and other professionals with the skills and knowledge to be effective in a contemporary business environment where the rapid rate of financial change and development has a significant impact on the success of the modern organisation. 

Students can customise their MBAX individual program to focus on improving business management with a specialisation focus allowing them to develop management competencies and knowledge in technology, change, operational excellence or social impact. A unique combination of courses provides participants with an array of intellectual tools to manage business as well as their specialist area, and where these two aspects of management intersect. 

All candidates must have at least two years relevant professional experience and hold a prior tertiary degree to gain entry. Candidates who do not have a tertiary degree but have six or more years relevant professional experience may also apply to the program. MBAX learning is enriched by a student cohort of mature-age professionals and managers who bring a diversity of experience from a wide cross section of industry. Participants benefit immediately by applying core course concepts to their workplace and experience.

The MBAX is designed to be undertaken part-time in combination with full-time employment and is delivered predominantly in an online asynchronous mode. Classes are in small groups of approximately 25-28 participants with a dedicated facilitator. Online classes are accessed via secure internet login, while some weeknight campus classes are available.
