DR SARAH KELLY

MBA Program Director

What does it take to be a great business leader? What skills and

qualities do you need to become part of the global elite? These

are the questions that many MBA candidates will be asking.

One thing is for sure – it’s not just about management theory,

although a knowledge of subjects like nance and strategy is

essential for those wishing to reach the highest levels.

The best business leaders also know how to apply their

knowledge even in challenging circumstances, solve problems,

inspire and motivate others, and develop networks. They can

operate in dynamic, culturally diverse and complex global markets

and are compassionate, socially aware leaders.

As the number one program in Australia and Asia Pacic, the

UQ Business School MBA aims to create the global business

leaders of the future. We strike a balance between academic

rigour and practical application, providing an environment where

our students can develop all the right skills and qualities as they

continue on their career path.

Here are some of the things that set us apart:

Putting knowledge into practice

The UQ Business School MBA offers students a range ofopportunities to apply their knowledge and develop their

problem solving skills in real-life business scenarios.

Building leadership skills

Leadership is a key focus in the UQ Business School MBA.

The Leadership Capability Framework, developed specically for

the MBA program, assesses your level of leadership skills and

provides evidence of your progress.

Giving back to society

With social justice rising up the business agenda, the SocialEconomic Engagement Program (SEEP) gives MBA students an

opportunity to work within the community and use their skills to

solve social problems.

FITS IN WITH

YOUR LIFESTYLE

a Master’s-level general business degree which

will equip you with the sophisticated skills and

knowledge required to become a successful

business leader.

The MBA is ideal for those who already have an undergraduate

degree, several years of work experience, and now want to

move ahead in their career – to gain a promotion, establish their

own business or make the transition to a different organisation

or industry.

UQ Business School’s MBA is ranked as one of the leading MBA

programs worldwide. Its unique features help to set it apart from

other MBA programs and provide added value to students.

and work commitments.

FLEXIBLE MBA OPTIONS

UQ Business School has designed an MBA program that is highly

exible, while also acknowledging the importance of the ‘cohort

effect’ – the extra value that is generated when students can

clearly identify with their classmates and share sufcient class and

study time with them to develop the lasting relationships that are

such a valuable part of any MBA experience.

You can approach your study in one of three ways:

ACCELERATED PROGRAM

The Accelerated program can be completed in 12 months and is

taught in intensive blocks between early January and November.

STREAMLINED PROGRAM*

alongside your job and is structured to include some evening

to need more than two years to complete the MBA, you can

structure your program to suit your needs by choosing to study in

the evenings, by taking weekend intensive courses, or by taking

one-week intensive mode offerings.

* Students in the Streamlined and Flexible programs have the option of also

completing up to two approved courses in the one-week intensive mode

delivered by UQ Business School Executive Education.

OVERCOMING REAL

BUSINESS CHALLENGES

Problem solving is central to a leader’s role, so one of

the most important outcomes from the MBA is the ability

to apply your knowledge and skills to resolve real-life

business issues.

The Integrated Strategic Analysis Capstone course is the culmination of

the MBA. It provides the opportunity to integrate the key concepts you

have learned in previous courses in a consultancy project for one of

UQ Business School’s partner companies.

Working as part of a team, you will be operating at the highest strategic

level of business and collaborating directly with the CEO. The Capstone

project will challenge your capabilities, requiring you to apply your

skills in unfamiliar contexts and address complex problems. However

the experience is also highly rewarding, and will help to build your

condence in your own capabilities and provide an experience of

lasting impact.

The MBA Capstone experience concludes with a signature event away

from the UQ St Lucia campus, where graduating MBA students present

their conclusions and recommendations.

“The MBA Capstone course was an exciting opportunity to

work with an amazingly talented team of fellow students and

apply the skills we learned throughout the MBA program to

solve a challenging real-life business problem.”

RICHARD O’QUINN

MBA Graduate 2014

“A team of MBA students worked on our Flight Centre Travel

Group business, and with great expertise, presented some

strong proposals for growth opportunities. Our company was

impressed by the students’ level of professionalism and the

FINDING SOLUTIONS

TO SOCIAL PROBLEMS

Social issues are moving higher up the business agenda.

Today’s businesses place greater importance on their

responsibility to stakeholders and to society at large. The

rise of social enterprise shows that more start-ups are

keen to incorporate a social mission, and there is growing

awareness that business can solve social problems while

generating sustainable prots.

The Social Economic Engagement Program (SEEP) gives MBA students

the chance to apply their classroom learning to nding solutions to

social problems and explore the challenges facing the not-for-prot

sector and social enterprise. It is also an opportunity for students to

develop their leadership skills in the community and to achieve the

sense of fullment that comes from giving back to society.

INTERNATIONAL MARKETS

THE WHARTON GLOBALCONSULTING PRACTICUM

The Wharton Global Consulting Practicum (GCP) is one of the

best experiential learning opportunities for MBA students that a

business school can offer.

the broader South East Asian market.

The program culminates in two days of

activities hosted by Fudan in Shanghai,where the team presents its strategy to the

client company and introduces it to key contacts.

“The UQ Wharton GCP was the icing on the cake in finishing

my MBA. Being able to put some of the theory I have learnt

into practice was a great experience. The client, being a

new industry for me, forced us to apply critical thinking to a

completely different commercial scenario.”

STEFFI ANDRUCHIW

Chief Financial Ofcer, Harcourts International

“The GCP program provides UQ Business School students

with an unmatched opportunity for both professional and

personal development. Bringing MBA theory to life while

you work with a global team and produce deliverables for a

paying client is incredibly rewarding. The GCP experience

pushes students to grow as collaborative team members

ultimate MBA experience.”

a country relatively new to global business could so quickly be

leading the way in many new and established industries, from

digital innovation to specialised manufacturing.

part in an industry panel at the High Commission in Delhi, met

businesses from a wide range of sectors, attended lectures at the

Indian School of Business (ISB) in Hyderabad, and worked with a

micronance charity in the slums of Delhi.

They rated the tour 7 out of 7 in terms of the overall experience

and said that their perspectives on India and emerging economies

had been transformed as a result.

“The India Immersion Tour provided us with an insightful

and unique overview to the business environment and

culture in India. We were fortunate to be exposed to a

very thoughtful and diverse set of experiences with ISB

lectures, company tours and industry panel discussions.

It was a truly exhilarating and energising experience.”

same time studying for her MBA. On its completion in 2012

she won the Director’s Award for Leadership. Alice is now

CEO of Family Planning Queensland.

“The MBA initially provided me with a range of theoretical

models to study. I moved on to selecting those of most

relevance and implementing them in my organisation.

The MBA provided “safe” learning experiences outside

my comfort zone, which enabled me to have the self-

assurance to take positive leadership steps within my own

work environment. It gave me the confidence to lead!

“The MBA has taught me to frequently reflect on my

actions and consider how I might improve my leadership

style. As evidence of my growth, I was promoted three

times during the program, rising from HR Manager to

Executive Director.”

John is a senior HR executive with more than 20 years of

experience. He spent 10 years with Nortel Networks in

Melbourne, Seoul and Singapore, where he was the Asia

the mining industry. He is currently located at the head ofce

in Melbourne.

“I wanted to broaden my knowledge of other functions

within the business, and gain a deeper understanding of

financial drivers of the firm.

“UQ Business School’s full-time MBA ticked all my boxes.

It is contemporary in its design, delivery and content,

strikes a good balance between theory and practice, and

the support infrastructure is excellent.

“Whilst the cohort and friendships are amongst my key

memories, so too were some of the lectures where the

content genuinely challenged your own mental models

of how things work in the world. These were simply the

best for me.”

FROM THE

CLASS OF 2014

Having started out in the

nance industry in 2001,

Samantha has spent most

of her career since then in

commercial insurance. She has

diverse skills and experience

including strategy, changemanagement, business

analysis, portfolio management,

learning and development,

and leadership. Halfway

through the MBA program,

Samantha moved into a Senior

Strategic Advisor role with a

$1.5bn business.

“The UQ Business School

MBA has helped me

develop my knowledge

across a broad rangeof business theory

and practice, to a level

where I can comfortably

converse with just about

anyone on any topic. This,

coupled with the hands-on

experience gained through

the Wharton GCP and SEEP

programs, has made me an

all-round asset.”

Andrew graduated with a

dual Bachelor of Economics

and Commerce degree, then

joined a small team tasked

with setting up a government-

owned company. After seeing it

through to successful operation,he undertook an MBA at UQ

Business School. Andrew

has since joined KPMG’s

management consulting team,

providing advisory services to

private and public sector clients

across a range of industries

including tourism, education

and agriculture.

“UQ Business School offered

unique opportunities to

build my commercial skillset by getting involved

in SEEP, a business

immersion tour of India

with one of Australia’s great

cricketers, and the Wharton

GCP, one of the most

rewarding experiences of

the MBA program.”

After graduating with an

international business degree,

Melissa began a career as a

management consultant with an

international rm, gaining diverse

industry knowledge and technical

skills. She wanted to developfurther depth in contemporary

business practices and make

the most of the experience she

had gained. Melissa took the

Flexible MBA over four years,

all-purpose vehicle to

transfer my skills from the

professional sporting arena

to the business world. The

regular career path for a

professional cricketer is as

a coach or commentator.

things differently and create

something more meaningful

ACCT7804 Accounting & Business Analysis Accounting involves compiling and interpreting nancial information about an enterprise and its activities as a basis for making and evaluating

economic decisions about the deployment of resources. A basic knowledge of accounting is important for anyone involved in modernenterprises, whether they are prot-oriented, government, or non-prot entities. The aim of the course is to provide a broad understanding of

the accounting discipline to enable students to comprehend, evaluate, interpret, question, and intelligently discuss accounting information;and understand the uses, limitations, complexities and evolving nature of accounting.

ECON7012 Business Economics This course focuses on how consumption, investment, production and supply chain choices are made in the face of problems of information andknowledge. These choices need to be coordinated to avoid wasted opportunities, even more so when individuals, rms, or entire economies

choose to specialise. Adjustments in relative prices and the incentives provided by prots and losses play major coordinating roles. Coordination

is also assisted by planning and social institutions. Even so, coordination failures can still occur, leading to major slumps in employment andinternational trade. Economics can help to assess when these problems are likely and how they may be dealt with.

FINM7805 Financial Management This course provides students with a range of tools required for corporate nancial decision-making and personal investing. The course also

develops a framework for corporate decision-making centred on the concept of shareholder value. Topics include: nancial mathematics;

short-term nancial management; the use and valuation of debt and equity securities; project evaluation with an emphasis on the discounted

cash ow techniques of net present value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR); individual investing; portfolio theory and diversication; the

weighted-average cost of capital (WACC); risk; and the capital asset pricing model (CAPM).

MGTS7801 Management Frameworks This foundation course introduces students to the MBA and provides specic areas of foundational knowledge and skills to build on throughout

the program. These areas include frameworks for understanding organisations and leadership, as well as individual management and leadershipabilities. Building capability begins with a thorough self-assessment, gap analysis, and subsequent identication of professional goals that can be

achieved throughout, and beyond completion of the program.

MGTS7802 International ManagementInternational Management provides an understanding of how the economic, geopolitical and cultural dimensions of the international businessenvironment shape international business investment trade and transacting, and how international rms are managed in this environment.

Strategies for market positioning of very large rms, small and medium rms in these complex environments, and the rm structures that emerge

to support these strategies, are investigated alongside new and innovative forms of enterprise to capture international advantage.

MGTS7803 Integrated Strategic Analysis The nal and capstone course, Integrated Strategic Analysis, is delivered as a one week residential that integrates and extends the key concepts

from the core courses of the MBA program. This course allows students to analyse, synthesise and present conclusions and recommendations

on a current business case.

MGTS7807 Operations Design The objective of this course is to develop students’ understanding of business systems and process design within diverse organisations andto evaluate how they relate to the organisation’s corporate objectives, market development, and long-term sustainability. Students will gainan understanding of the important theoretical issues and concepts relating to the design of core business processes, performance reportingmechanisms and accountability.

MGTS7808 Information Technology for Business ValueHow do senior managers use information and communication technology (ICT) systems and services to enable strategy and get more businessvalue out of IT? In this course we take the strategic perspective of the general manager to study how leading rms leverage their IT investments.

Our focus centres on IT leadership and IT governance rather than the more ‘technical’ aspects of IT. Therefore an IT background is not required.

MGTS7809 Strategic Human Resources Management This course examines the systems and processes involved in human resource management with the aim of improving organisationalperformance. Building on an appreciation of the environment in which business operates, the course aims to develop a deep understanding of

HR practices such as recruitment, selection and retention of staff as value adding activities. Strategies aimed at managing staff performance anddeveloping staff competence and the professional and ethical application of HR practice are explored at the individual and organisational level.

MGTS7810 Leading People & Teams This course develops the skills and knowledge required to lead people and teams effectively in modern organisations. The course specically

focuses on current theory and applied knowledge in this area, starting from an initial focus on the role of individual variables (personality,motivations, perceptions, communication skills, emotional intelligence) and then moving to the nature of teams (team roles, cohesion, norms,formation, identity issues) and the interplay between individual and team factors within organisations. The approach taken also providesopportunities for students to reect on their own work experiences and to improve their current practice.

MKTG7806 Marketing Management This course synthesises current perspectives of marketing and communication theory. Students will be expected to critique traditional marketingmanagement and communication thinking within organisations. This contemporary approach aims to inform management practice better througha synthesis of the interplay between the disciplines of communication and marketing. It will prepare students to think ethically and critically aboutthe communication and relationship processes that occur in organisations between their internal and external stakeholders.

TIMS7811 Innovation Leadership Innovation has been described as the fundamental source of competitive advantage. The purpose of this course is to analyse the importanceand nature of innovation and how managers can lead innovation for sustainable competitive advantage. The course is based on robust analyticalframeworks and contemporary empirical evidence on international best practice in innovation leadership.
