“I was already working before I started my MBA. So I consistently used to relate the studied concepts with my professional work environment. This helped me a lot in my practical understanding. Soon after my graduation I was considered for a more senior role and five months later, I am the custodian of business activities for the Middle East region and Africa within my business unit. This is a new challenge for me however; my MBA has equipped me well with the skills I require to fulfil this role. Murdoch provided me with an excellent student experience that I will cherish in years to come.”

“I chose to study an MBA for my personal and professional career development. As a manager, I wanted to enhance my skills and improve my knowledge in the business management field. More than anything I was excited to resume my studies after 15 years and Murdoch provided me with the motivating and challenging experience I was after. The friendly environment and the assistance from the lectures is second to none and I would highly recommend Murdoch as a place to commence post-graduate studies, especially for Junior managers looking to excel in their current roles.”
