Executive Master of Business Administration
Elevate your leadership skills with an executive qualification that strengthens your analytical rigour and strategic acumen. Choose to complete your Executive Master of Business Administration (Executive MBA) intensively or part time, with structures that are designed to help you balance study, work, and life.
An Executive MBA sends a message to your professional peers and future employers—about your intellectual ability, professional experience, executive calibre, and understanding of innovation in business.
Learn from academic and professional leaders and build powerful networks with your fellow students. You'll master tools and models that improve strategic thinking, decision making, and leadership.
Develop practical skills that you can immediately put to use in your professional life, and build a bank of knowledge that will maximise your career potential.
You’ll apply your learning in a live consultancy project. Take part in the international study tour and work overseas with an international business, or choose to stay local and lend your skills to a New Zealand-based organisation.
