Create meaningful change in your organisation, industry and community as a leader in social impact. The MBAX (Social Impact) primes you to understand the dynamics of the social economy, and how different organisations can work together to drive progress for all.

Wondering ‘what is social impact?’. The phrase refers to the effect that a business, government or entity has on society. It’s increasingly critical for purpose-driven organisations that want to operate sustainably and improve life for everyone. At AGSM @ UNSW, we’re leading the national conversation around social impact in collaboration with the Centre for Social Impact, opens in a new window, and our graduates benefit from having a front-row seat.

You’ll study in a part-time fully flexible capacity and have the option to choose how your courses are delivered to you – online, face-to-face or a combination of the two. You’ll create a schedule that works with your existing commitments, meaning you can continue working while you study and put your learnings to the test right away.
