Monash University Faculty of Business and Economics

The Monash MBA aims to develop individual leadership and personal capabilities, and provides an holistic approach to business challenges and issues alongside conventional discipline-based academic subjects. The program emphasises the development of innovative thinking capabilities, and an awareness of the moral and ethical responsibilities of management as a professional practice.

Outstanding quality
One of the premier MBA programs in Australia, the Monash MBA is regularly ranked in the top 100 in the world.
