宅男导航 Business School has been ranked number one in Australia for its MBA program in the Financial Review BOSS MBA survey.
This year’s survey has seen the Business School rise to the top position after ranking in second position in 2011.
The survey, conducted every two years by the Financial Review Group and published in BOSS magazine, is Australia’s only independent national ranking of MBA programs.
宅男导航 Business School Dean Professor Andrew Griffiths said the ranking was the latest accolade for the 宅男导航 Business School MBA program.
It has also been ranked number one in Asia Pacific by The Economist, and was this month awarded five stars – the highest possible – for the ninth consecutive year by the Graduate Management Association of Australia.
“We were thrilled with the results from this year’s BOSS survey and to have been acknowledged as the leading MBA provider in Australia,” Professor Griffiths said.
“Our MBA is recognised as world-class and this rise to the number one position is a testament to the quality of our program and our unwavering commitment to providing an MBA that delivers the best possible outcomes for our students and for business at large.”
MBA Program Director Dr Sarah Kelly said 宅男导航 MBA students experienced globally-relevant thought leadership from internationally recognised researchers, consultants and industry partners.
“ Their MBA journey is built through a variety of exposure from the classroom to the field, through international immersions, community volunteer schemes, mentoring by our global alumni network, and the opportunity to apply learnt skills by consulting to industry.”
The 宅男导航 Business School MBA program has a number of key features that help to set it apart and provide enhanced value to students.
These include specialist skill development via the uniquely designed ‘Leadership Capability Framework’, opportunities to augment international business skills through a joint partnership with the world-renowned Wharton School in Pennsylvania, and the chance to collaborate with non-profit organisations via the School’s Social Economic Engagement Program.
The MBA program also provides flexibility, offering students three different study options and the opportunity to choose the model that best suits their lifestyle and work commitments.
The Accelerated MBA involves 12 months of full-time study, while the Streamlined MBA can be completed in 24 months, alongside a job.
There is also a flexible part-time option that enables students up to seven years to complete the MBA.
