Top of pagePurpose of the Program
The Graduate Certificate in International Business is a stand-alone award that offers a pathway for further learning leading to the Master of International Business, or can be an early exit point for those enrolled in the Master of International Business. 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 International Business is designed to prepare you for a career in international corporate, government or not-for-profit organisations. The program builds the knowledge and skills necessary for critical and creative approaches to international business by providing advanced study in contemporary international business theory and practice that is supported by ethical and sustainable business decision-making. It will also provide you with the capacity to address the international regulation of business and critically evaluate the impacts of decisions and practice through case studies and interactive and experiential learning activities.
The program is delivered on-campus.
