Master of Business (Management) (LMBMC)

In a rapidly changing and competitive environment individuals and business organisations are recognising the need for qualifications that provide sound management practice.

The Master of Business (Management) is designed to add value to a graduate’s original studies by developing knowledge and skills in recognised core management areas. Completion of the Masters will provide graduates from non-management disciplines with career development and advancement opportunities.

The structure of the course permits multiple entry points from the Graduate Diploma in Management offered from the Albury-Wodonga Campus.

Participants will study a range of required business and management subjects concluding in the final tier with a research project. The project will build upon the management areas addressed in the program and allow an opportunity for applied research.

Most subjects are offered in mixed modes, including weekly sessions and weekend block mode, with some subjects available via the worldwide web.

Admission requirements

Applicants must have completed an undergraduate degree, desirably have two years work experience, and be proficient in the English language, possessing strong verbal and written communication skills. Applicants who have completed a Graduate Diploma in Management elsewhere may receive full credit and gain direct entry into the Masters program.

Graduates with either the Bachelor of Business (Honours) or the Graduate Diploma in Management from La Trobe University will normally be required to complete six additional subjects (from list below).

Applicants must apply directly to the Albury-Wodonga Campus. For further information, contact the School Executive Officer
