The MBA for a changing world

Alexandra Skinner talks to Paul Harrison
Q. What makes MBA’s experience at the University of Deakin unique?
We have designed Deakin MBA around flexibility, the relevance of industry and leadership with an impact of the real world. We know that our students are balancing professional and personal bus lives, so we have designed a program that fits them, whether that means the study on the campus, online or through immersive Experiences such as international consulting projects and study tours or residential intensive or a little of all.
But for me, the critic is that we adopt complexity. The business (and life) is not black and white, and leadership is not about finding simple answers; It is how we sail for uncertainty, competitive priorities and constant change. We challenge students to interact with the true business disorder, from the balance of financial objectives with ethical leadership to make strategic decisions in unpredictable contexts and administer teams in a viable and financial financial and financially.
Q. Can MBA routes and the delivery options sacrifice?
One of the best things of Deakin MBA is its flexibility. In essence, the base of Deakin MBA is online. So, we build an online world -class learning experience that allows students to study from anywhere, at any time. But flexibility is not just about being online; It means different things for different people, and we have designed the program to stay a wide range of learning needs and styles. For those looking for something different, we sacrifice intensive study options. Our residential programs gather students for short and high -impact learning experiences, where they address commercial challenges as a team. We also have a study tour with international consulting projects, where students apply their skills in a global context, solving complex problems for organizations in different cultural and economic environments.
And there are also the stackable short courses (we refer to them as master classes), which provide students with more control over their learning trip. They can begin with little, develop their skills about time and any transition from anyone to MBA when it makes sense to them. The conclusion is that we know that our students have different objectives, commitments and forms of learning, so we have ensured that the Dek MBA is as flexible as possible without compromise in any way.
