Apply now to start studying your Master of Business Administration (MBA) in January 2025 (Trimester 1).
Curtin's Graduate Diploma in Business will give you the breadth of skills and knowledge critical to business operations and leadership. You’ll learn the relevance of economic theory, factors to consider in financial decision-making, the theory and practice of strategic decision-making, and about leading people.
This qualification is relevant for managers at all levels (emerging through to middle/senior levels) who want to extend their business knowledge and may have an undergraduate degree in a non-business area.
After completing the four units of the graduate diploma, you may choose to exit or pause your business studies or complete the additional four units required to gain your Master of Business Administration (MBA).
Note: If you don't yet meet the admission criteria for the Graduate Diploma in Business, complete our Graduate Certificate in Business or Graduate Certificate in Business Futures as a stepping stone. This pathway won’t take you any longer, as completing the units in those graduate certificates will provide course credits towards your Graduate Diploma.
