About this program

The Master of Management at Victoria University in Melbourne supports students interested in advanced studies in business administration and leadership. Over two years of full-time study, students complete a series of units covering leadership, strategic management, organisational behaviour, business ethics, and marketing strategy. The degree is structured around units of study with credit points assigned to each, culminating in a total credit load that meets Australian master's degree standards.

Most students undertake their studies across four semesters, choosing from core and elective units that suit their interests and career plans. Some students opt for a research thesis or capstone project as part of their final year, allowing for deeper exploration of a management topic or addressing real-world business problems. Professional placements or work-integrated learning are offered in partnership with industry, giving students practical management experience in Australian business settings.

Graduates develop communication, critical thinking, and strategic decision-making skills that are highly valued in business leadership roles. The course builds students' confidence to manage teams, drive change, and respond to challenges in both Australian and international business environments. This course suits graduates from various undergraduate backgrounds seeking management roles or progressing their careers in corporate, government, or not-for-profit sectors.

International students studying in Australia can work up to 48 hours per fortnight during semester and may be eligible to apply for a Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485) after graduation for post-study work experience. To confirm unit selections, specifics around placements, and all entry requirements, students should check Victoria University's official course page.
