Why study business administration and marketing at UoN?

This combined degree program allows students to undertake studies in the more general business disciplines of the Master of Business Administration while also studying the specific Marketing courses of the Master of Marketing.

The Master of Business Administration program is designed to provide students with a range of analytic, strategic and leadership skills which will prepare them for increasingly competitive careers in business management in the corporate and public sectors. The program offers a grounding in fundamental business areas such as accounting, finance, organisational behaviour, economics, marketing and management. Analytic and problem solving skills are emphasised through an applied understanding of the theoretical framework within which today's managers must operate, as well as the acquisition of practical skills in teamwork, writing, presentation and time-management. The ability to cope with rapid organisational and technological change is developed through an understanding of organisational behaviour, information systems and organisational change and development.

The Master of Marketing is designed to give students the ability to better evaluate existing and potential market opportunities and to develop strategies that achieve organisational outcomes appropriate for the Australian and international business environment. Students will develop a solid understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of marketing and how they are applied in all contexts.

Be equipped with valuable and highly transferable skills

Duration of the program is four trimesters full-time or equivalent part-time. The Newcastle Business School runs courses on a trimester system, i.e. three terms per year. Students may commence studies in January, May or September depending on location and availability. Please check term dates on the University website at: www.newcastle.edu.au/dates/.

Students are required to complete 130 units (thirteen courses) of Core Courses and 30 units (three courses) from other GSBS coded courses.
