Entry requirements:

• A recognised undergraduate degree (or equivalent qualification) or studies sufficient to meet the requirements of that Award; or
• A Graduate Certificate or Graduate Diploma in a Business discipline; or
• Where the applicant does not have an undergraduate degree, the Dean may approve admission to this program if the Dean is satisfied that: a) the applicant has sufficient background and/or experience in management/supervision; and b) the applicant has the skills necessary to complete postgraduate studies.

Advanced standing will be determined by the level of the subject, whether an equivalent graduate unit was obtained at another academic institution, and whether a similar unit was undertaken as part of an undergraduate degree. Applications for advanced standing are assessed on an individual basis.
