The MBA at BBS is designed as a flexible and future-focused course that supports students at different stages of their professional journey. The structure of the MBA includes two nested qualifications, the Graduate Certificate in Business (GCB) and the Graduate Diploma of Business (GDB). These options allow students to begin their studies at a level that matches their experience and career goals, while still providing a clear pathway into the full MBA. Students who complete the GCB or GDB can continue directly into the MBA with full credit for the units they have already achieved.
Structure
The MBA encompasses 12 units delivered over four semesters. The first year mirrors the curriculum of the GCB and GDB, while the second year introduces additional units, including electives and a capstone project.
