International Master of Business Administration

Adelaide University, Adelaide, SA, Australia

About this program

Adelaide University's International Master of Business Administration is a two-year program at the Adelaide City campus aimed at recent graduates and early-career professionals, so unlike most MBAs it does not require prior work experience. Entry is a completed bachelor degree in any field with IELTS 6.5. The course builds foundations in international business, cross-cultural management, marketing, finance and business ethics, and students can shape the degree with an elective specialisation in Business Analytics, Finance, Human Resource Management, Marketing, Procurement and Supply Chain Management, or Project Management. Teaching uses real company case studies, guest speakers and mentoring with senior business leaders, and the cohort is deliberately international. Graduates move into management consulting, human resource management, supply chain roles and general leadership positions across business, not-for-profits and government. Indicative international tuition is around A$52,500 per year.
