Master of Business Administration

Wave goodbye to two-week internships that come to an end when you’ve just learned the names of everyone in your office. With an MBA from Flinders, there are more opportunities to get up close with industry in meaningful ways – including specialised entrepreneurship programs, internships, projects and placements. Depending on the MBA you select, you could be working closely with industry for up to 36 weeks.

It’s a new way to MBA. These exciting, fresh courses at Flinders University are innovative, flexible and highly engaging – if you’ve been considering an MBA, now is the time, with multiple to choose from that can be tailored to your life and goals.  

No, but there are plenty of online study options available as part of your course! We require some face-to-face interaction as we strongly believe networking opportunities are one of the major benefits of studying an MBA.

The classes will be held at our campus in the Adelaide CBD, where our building overlooks the lovely Victoria Square.

Yes, in many ways. Not only will it help you to build your networks, improve your confidence and knowledge, and give you access to sought-after industry experience, but salaries for MBA graduates tend to be higher than for those with just a Bachelor’s Degree.  

To view the admission requirements for the MBA, refer to the Handbook. Generally speaking, you’ll either need to hold a Bachelor’s Degree from an approved tertiary institution or the Graduate Certificate in Business Administration (which can be accessed by proving prior work experience).

Not necessarily. See the answer above for more information on eligibility. To view the admission requirements for the MBA, refer to the Handbook.

You can apply through SATAC. There are three study periods for our new MBAs, meaning you may be able to start at different times of the year.

Yes, definitely! The topics and specialised industry entrepreneurial programs within the courses will provide you with invaluable content about starting your own business, and the industry, student and alumni networks you’ll establish during the course will help prepare you to launch your own venture.

You can also choose from six MBA specialisations: Business Analytics, Finance, Healthcare Management, Human Resource Management, International Business, and Marketing.

We strongly believe engaging in-person helps to improve the quality of professional relationships, and it forms an important part of the courses. That being said, studying at Flinders University is still highly flexible. There are multiple ways to structure your study timetable around your life, and you’ve got the option to study all of your topics online, too.

Yes, it will just extend the duration of your course (view the Handbook for more details).

This can vary based on the MBA you select to study, but all of our MBA courses offer generous exposure to industry and opportunity, through placements, internships and specialised industry entrepreneurial programs. Of the courses, the MBA Industry Focused offers the most exposure to industry (up to 36 weeks).
