Master of Health Economics, Management and Policy / Master of Business Administration at The University of Newcastle, Australia

The Master of Professional Accounting/Master of Business Administration is a Coursework combined program and is designed for students with a degree in a field other than Accounting who wish to obtain a sound introduction to accounting and business concepts and procedures. The program encompasses study in finance, general management, taxation law and auditing, marketing, human resources management, International business, E-business and entrepreneurship. The Master of Business Administration provides students with a range of analytic, strategic and leadership skills which will prepare them for increasingly competitive careers in business management in the corporate and public sectors. The program offers a grounding in fundamental business areas such as organisational behaviour, leadership, marketing and management. Analytic and problem solving skills are emphasised through an applied understanding of the theoretical framework within which today's managers must operate, as well as the acquisition of practical skills in teamwork, writing, presentation and time-management. The ability to cope with rapid organisational and technological change is developed through an understanding of organisational behaviour, information systems and organisational change and development.

The Master of Business Administration (MBA) is an internationally accredited qualification that gives you broad skills in leadership, strategy and financial management to further your professional career. You can complete the MBA in four trimesters full-time or over several years part-time choosing a pace that suits you and your lifestyle. It is especially suitable if youre looking to acquire the confidence and business acumen to move from a technical role into a managerial or executive position in business, if youre wanting to career switch or move into a different industry sector. Studying at our campus in the heart of the Perth Central Business District, you will enhance your learning through a combination of practical project work and evidence-based business theories applicable to local and global organisations. You can specialise in a particular area or choose subjects that complement your interests or the demands of your work. Subjects include economics, finance, organisational behaviour, strategy, international business and marketing. To ensure this course is aligned with changes to industry, weve also added new units in executive financial decision-making, global business sustainability and organisational strategy.
