Admission Requirements

Entry to the Master of Management program is competitive and places are limited.  The following entry requirements are the minimum requirements an applicant must present to be eligible to be considered for admission to the program.  The final decision for admission rests with the Dean of the ANU College of Business and Economics.

Academic requirements - a Bachelor degree in any discipline from a recognised university.  The relative ranking and/or reputation of the university may be taken into consideration.  Applicants completing an Australian degree program must have achieved a minimum grade average of 65% in their undergraduate studies.  Students completing degree studies outside Australia will need to meet a similar minimum grade requirement, however due to variations in grading scales the specific requirements vary between countries.  As an indication, examples of grades required include a GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale or Upper Second Class Honours degree.  Please contact the ANU directly for the grade average required for your country.

Work experience - applicants must have at least 3 years full-time professional or managerial work experience accumulated after the completion of a bachelor degree or at least 5 years full-time work experience overall.  The applicant’s work experience will be determined from information supplied in the application form, CV, referees reports and personal statement.  There must be clear evidence of career development.
