Agribusiness is the study of consumers, retailers, marketers, and primary producers - and the business of keeping the chain working profitably.

This program meets the needs of three groups of professionals:

those working in agribusiness who wish to upgrade their management skills;

those wishing to redirect their careers into agribusiness;

and new graduates in either business or agricultural/rural science wishing to add to their employment prospects.

Students have opportunities to enhance their knowledge, skills and practice;

to develop their careers;

and to deliver better and more profitable outcomes for Australian agribusiness.

Students learn to locate, interpret, synthesise and apply information from a variety of sources.

Graduates demonstrate a high level of specialised knowledge of agribusiness management, and business and communication skills associated with selected areas of study.
