Master of Business Administration (CRICOS 113883J)

The KOI Master of Business Administration draws on contemporary trends relating to technology enabled enterprises, global business communications, markets and workforces and radical changes in workplace engagement and empowerment arising from advances in technology. The subjects reflect current, leading, enterprises place “technology” central to their operations, rather than overlaying it onto legacy structures and systems. While KOI’s MBA adopts technology centric approach, its foundation is strongly built on traditional core areas such as strategic decision making, HR leadership and financial management. In addition, our unique degree focuses on real world problem solving of contemporary challenges and contextualises key knowledge areas by using contemporary teaching methodologies such as flipped classrooms and action learning.

The Master of Business Administration requires students to complete a total of 12 subjects over 4 (four) trimesters. The 12 MBA subjects cover the foundation and toolbox for students to move forward, deliver key research and analytical content that develops students’ educational progression, expand on the educational foundations and progression and broaden students’ horizons with study tours and an industry focused research report.
