The AGSM MBA concentrates on helping you prepare for general management and executive leadership roles in business and government. It’s about real-world learning that combines traditional classroom teaching with case studies and teamwork to develop management skills, encourage critical thinking and sharpen your decision-making ability. You’ll learn from internationally recognised faculty with industry experience, listen to management insights of current business leaders, and benefit from the knowledge of your fellow students, many of whom have worked for global organisations.
The team-based activities hone negotiation skills and emphasise the importance of working together co-operatively. And, of course, creativity and entrepreneurship are qualities that we are committed to encouraging. But it doesn’t stop there.
