Purpose of the Program

Leadership infused with Business Design Thinking: Empowering aspiring professionals to lead change with innovation.

The Graduate Certificate in Business Administration (Executive) is a stand-alone award that offers a pathway for further learning leading to the Master of Business Administration (Executive), or can be an early exit point for those enrolled in the Master of Business Administration (Executive). The program aims to broaden knowledge and skills for students entering with a qualification in an unrelated discipline, while students from a related discipline will deepen their existing knowledge and skills.

 

The Graduate Certificate in Business Administration (Executive) program supports the development of leaders with a forward perspective, underpinned by a contemporary body of business knowledge and research. The program is infused with principles of design, enabling you to create, lead and manage complex initiatives within uncertain globally connected environments.

 

Business leadership grounded in design means that as a graduate, you will understand the importance of analysing the architecture of business problems and the value that prototyping, creativity and synthesis lend to creating sustainable solutions that are end user driven. You will be equipped with the skills to effectively drive innovation and change so as to create ongoing value for your organisation and the communities it serves.

 

The program uses an adult and facilitated learning approach to learning and assessment. Learning activities and experiences are a combination of issue based seminars, case study analysis, exploration of readings and research, and facilitated class discussions.  Assessment tasks will often require you to integrate relevant academic literature with your own management experience.
