This program is designed to enhance the opportunities for graduates to obtain positions involving major managerial responsibilities in commerce, industry and government.

Its broad aim is to provide a program which will enable its graduates to apply contemporary management and business knowledge and perspectives in an interdisciplinary manner to the dynamic environments in which they are likely to find themselves as managers.

To graduate with the Master of Business Administration, students must complete:
