Swinburne University of Technology, MBA (Master of Business Administration)

Only Swinburne University of Technology can give you an MBA with personal attention in a highly interactive classroom environment

Swinburne University of Technology MBA Program

Swinburne University of Technology, MBA (Master of Business Administration)Swinburne University of Technology is a university that started from humble beginnings. It was actually a college back in 1908 and now look at it! It's one of the leading universities in Melbourne . One of the reason's why its done so well is because it's stuck to its tradition of small classes which means that the university cares more for quality rather than just quantity.

Swinburne University of Technology is located in Melbourne which is the second largest city in Australia . It's got a nice cosmopolitan feel to it, very relaxed and friendly. Traveling around Melbourne isn't an issue, they've got a great network of trams, trains and buses meaning that you can get almost anywhere you need to get to, and it isn't going to cost you a lot. And because it's such a large city, there's always going to be something going on whether it's a festival or cultural or even famous sporting events!

Studying MBA in Swinburne University of Technology

The Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree program offered by Swinburne University of Technology is simple. It will have 10 core subjects and 2 advanced electives. You will also have a major integrating project that is considered equivalent to two subjects.

FACT:
You actually have a choice to skip the project. In its place though, you will have to take four instead of two advanced electives.

What's special about their MBA program is the way classes are conducted in Swinburne. The classes are smaller in numbers compared to most universities which makes for a much more interactive and dynamic environment. Swinburne is also known for having lecturers who have had practical experience in their particular courses.

The admission requirement for an MBA program at Swinburne is an undergraduate requirement from a recognized Institution. Work experience is preferred although if you have outstanding results in an appropriate degree you can actually get in without the two years work experience.

Student Life

Swinburne University of Technology has many campuses throughout Melbourne but for their MBA program, it is only offered at their Hawthorn campus. It is the original and largest Swinburne campus that's only seven kilometers east of Melbourne .

Every Swinburne campus will have a library and they are all linked together via an online catalogue. You definitely can' give the excuse “lack of resources” because Swinburne's library is stocked up with over 200,000 books and 20,000 audiovisual items and an innumerable number of electronic information resources. If you don't have your own computer, don't worry, Swinburne also provides workstations for you to access the internet and other electronic resources.

At The End Of The Day

Swinburne University of Technology's smallish classes are definitely something to shout about. You're more likely to learn better because of the individual attention that you're getting. That is of course if you like that kind of thing. The other thing that's nice about Swinburne's MBA program is the option to pass on the project and instead take on extra study subjects. One thing thought, if you are strapped for cash then you should consider universities in smaller states because Melbourne is comparable to Sydney in terms of cost of living and the cost of living in Sydney is high.
