2 MBA PROGRAM 2010

THE ADELAIDE MBA PROGRAM

Why should you do an MBA at Adelaide?The MBA provides a broadly based education for students as managers, rather than just the acquisition of an off-the-shelf set of skills. The aim is to develop problem solving and communication skills, leadership and team building skills, and analytical and critical abilities that will enable you to understand better and deal with the complex issues of management in a rapidly changing business environment.

The MBA program emphasises the development of abilities to:

• Master leadership skills.

• Understand the functional interrelationships between different areas of an organisation and the broader interaction of the organisation with its environment

• Recognise and act effectively on problems and opportunities confronting an organisation

• Coordinate and apply an organisation’s fi nancial, physical, technological and human resources in pursuit of important objectives

• Understand and communicate effectively with people inside and outside an organisation

• Evaluate current management policies and practices to develop new ways to improve organisational effectiveness.

Students in the program come from a wide variety of disciplines, professional backgrounds and cultures, many with high standing from undergraduate areas. The School seeks to provide them with a solid grounding in academic disciplines relevant to management. Students will acquire the conceptual and analytical abilities they need to make and carry out decisions at a senior managerial level.

While the 12 course MBA program suits the needs of many, some students seek a deeper level of knowledge. The MBA (Advanced) program provides opportunities for these students, including:

• Those seeking a wider range of knowledge, which is needed for the highest levels of organisational leadership.

• Those seeking to specialise in one particular area, by undertaking four electives.

• Those seeking to undertake further study as part of a life long learning process, and wishing to gain accreditation for this.

• It is possible for students enrolled in the 12 course MBA to progress into the 16 course MBA (Advanced), as both programs have a common core.

MBA PROGRAM 2010 3

FlexibilityThe diagram below provides an explanation of the four programs and the articulation between them. There are four entry and four exit points.

Study completed in one program can be counted towards the next level program. For example, you may enrol in the Graduate Certifi cate in Management and proceed through to the Graduate Diploma, MBA or MBA (Adv) with credit for courses completed.

Conversely, provided you meet the entry requirements, you may choose to enrol in the highest qualifi cation, the MBA (Adv) and then exit with a lesser qualifi cation such as the Graduate Diploma of Business Administration.

You decide how many courses you enrol in each trimester and, provided you complete your selected program within the maximum completion time, you may suspend your studies for a trimester to cope with work or other commitments.

Fast-track

Each course (subject) is delivered over a twelve week trimester. There are 3 trimesters in a year. This allows you to condense your studies into a shorter period of time. For example, undertaking the MBA in a full-time mode would require only one year to complete.

To view the current timetable, visit: www.business.adelaide.edu.au

Study modes and time commitment

All programs can be studied part-time or full-time. Program structures are fl exible and allow students to choose a study pattern that suits the competing demands of work, family and other commitments.

Study load

A part-time study load is typically one or two courses each trimester and a full-time load is three or four courses each trimester. It is recommended that parttime students enrol in one course in their fi rst trimester of study in order to determine the workload.

The total contact time for most courses is 36 hours (3 hours per week), excluding the open book examination. In addition, students will be required to spend extra time on private study and group work. It is estimated that most students will spend 8 hours per week per course in reading, assignments, preparation and/or group work.

Program Details and Articulation

The School’s programs form a nested sequence. The details of each program are outlined below.

Graduate Certifi cate in Management

For managers who wish to take an introductory management program we offer the 4 course Graduate Certifi cate in Management (GCM). Applicants who do not have a bachelor degree but who have a minimum of seven years relevant work experience, including a number of years in a management or leadership role, must enrol in this program fi rst. After successfully completing the GCM, they may apply to transfer into the Graduate Diploma of Business Administration, and then into the MBA or MBA (Adv) program. The four GCM courses will be credited towards the higher level program.

Graduate Diploma of Business Administration

An 8 course Graduate Diploma of Business Administration (GDBA) is also available. The GDBA consists of 6 required core courses and 2 electives. Students who are considering enrolling in the MBA or MBA (Advanced) in the future are encouraged to choose two MBA required core courses in place of the two electives in the GDBA program.

Master of Business Administration

The MBA program is designed for managers who wish to advance their career, gain valuable skills and insights and expand their business networks. It is the most popular of the programs, striking a balance between depth of skills and knowledge covered and overall time commitment. Students in this program must successfully complete 8 required core courses and 4 elective courses.

Master of Business Administration (Advanced)

The MBA (Advanced) program is designed to cater for several different niches. Students seeking the highest levels of organisational leadership will understand the need to go beyond the standard 12 course MBA degree to broaden their managerial knowledge.

7 MBA PROGRAM 2010

FUNDAMENTALS OF LEADERSHIP

Fundamentals of Leadership is the fi rst course for all programs. Upon completion, students will possess an understanding of the development of management thought and practice, providing a background against which new trends in management can be viewed. They will be able to identify and discuss the major challenges facing management in today’s environment and develop the understanding and communication skills required to effectively lead and manage a diverse workforce.

ACCOUNTING FOR MANAGERS

Participants in this course will develop the essential ability of all managers, to use complex accounting information as a platform for decision-making. The course develops skills in interpreting earnings statements, balance sheets and cash fl ow reports. In the second phase of the course students will take away highly relevant skills in areas such as budgeting, product and service costing and short-run decision- making.

MARKETING MANAGEMENT

Marketing lies at the core of all business. Whatever the character or size of your entity, its profi t can come from only one place: the marketplace. All businesses are dependent on the income they earn from their customers, clients or buyers. In most businesses it is Marketing Managers who are primarily responsible for keeping their company close

to its customers. All those who have a direct responsibility for identifying, reaching and satisfying customers are engaged in marketing and everybody in a business needs to understand its marketplace activities. This course offers a complete introduction to professional marketing thought and action.

ECONOMICS FOR MANAGEMENT

This course provides an introduction to economic thinking and its relevance and application to managing organisations. The fi rst part of the course deals with the structure of markets, including perfect competition, monopoly and oligopoly, and the competitive regulatory environment. The second part deals with the determinants of the aggregate level of output and employment, and elements in the determination of macroeconomic policy including interest rates, infl ation and foreign trade and capital fl ows. The focus of the course is on current issues and their implications for managers and competitive organisations.

MANAGING CONTEMPORARY ORGANISATIONS

This course exposes students to some key infl uences and perspectives on the management of organisations. Its focus is primarily on human issues that affect and are dealt with by managers day-to-day. The course is an extension of “Fundamentals of Leadership” and provides the background and theoretical framework for more advanced studies in business management.

The course begins by examining the nature of ‘organisation’ as an ‘open system’. Then the management challenge in relation to various facets of organisation is reviewed – learning, motivation, politics, performance, ethics, culture, innovation, decision-making, structure and change.

MANAGERIAL FINANCE

Initially this course will cover the concepts of valuation in fi nance and show how they can be applied to valuing corporate securities. Adopting a value creation perspective, the course will then consider capital expenditure decision approaches and their application to a range of situations, as well as evaluation of the results. Then, risk is considered, with a risk-return model developed that can be applied in managing for value creation. The course examines the concept of the weighted average cost of capital, before turning to consider corporate fi nancing and capital structure decisions.

STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT

This course presents a unifi ed way of thinking about the issues of strategic thinking and the management of change. Strategic thinking involves searching for a favourable and sustainable competitive position in an attractive industry; while the management of change, from a strategic perspective, is concerned with innovation and the transformation of resources and skills into strategic capabilities that provide the bases for

sustainable advantages. Strategic Management is important because it can help focus the fi rm in terms of the customer. It identifi es a direction for the fi rm and enables a clear articulation of the path chosen.

GLOBAL BUSINESS

Global business examines those business activities which involve trade or investment across national boundaries. These activities typically relate directly to the movement of exports or imports plus support activities such as transport, credit, marketing, payment, legal and insurance services. They may also include activities relating to the intangible assets of the fi rm, such as trademarks, patents, and the licensing of brand names or product and manufacturing technology. Dealing with these matters requires a working knowledge of the world’s international trade and monetary systems. The scope of the global business course is broad and it necessarily embraces a host of cross border issues related to environment in which every international business operates.

MBA CORE COURSES

8 MBA PROGRAM 2010

In addition to completing the required MBA core courses, the following are the required courses for students under-taking the MBA (Advanced) program.

BUSINESS PROJECT OR MANAGEMENT PROJECT

Business Project

This course draws on the work undertaken in the core MBA courses. Projects may be undertaken by an individual student or by a team of 3-5 students who take on the role of consultant(s) to an organisation and analyse a real business problem or issue and produce recommendations. Projects may be sourced by students or the School. Each project will be allocated an academic project supervisor.

Much of the time for this course will be in practical fi eldwork or desk research. The project will conclude with a presentation by the student or student group, to members of the client organisation and the Business School at which time a fi nal written report will be given to the organisation.

Management Project

This project provides an opportunity for an individual student or a team of students to complete an applied research project based on a business problem or issue. Students may choose either a case study project which analyses a real-world management problem or a project which undertakes the investigation of a particular problem or issue and makes relevant recommendations. A program of activities will be completed and lead to a case or project report.

OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT

Operations is the term used in management to refer collectively to the many processes through which an organisation’s strategies for competing in the marketplace are put into action. Obviously, in any organisation’s operations there are many kinds of processes that must be managed – inbound logistics, production, outbound logistics, and customer support in many forms, to name only a few. In this course, we will fi rst develop an overview of the range of processes that can make up the operations of an organisation. We then focus on some key issues in managing certain fundamental processes that are critically important to the strategies of many organisations today.

BUSINESS LAW

This course will introduce managers to a range of legal issues that impact on their business and on their duties and responsibilities as managers. There is an increasing trend in the law to make managers personally liable for breaches of the law by their business. The course will help managers to identify areas of legal liability and risk and suggest how to minimise legal risk. The topics covered in the course include an introduction to the Australian legal system, the law of business structures, contract law, intellectual property law, employment law, law of business torts, consumer protection law, competition law and electronic commerce law.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

Scholarships

There are very few University of Adelaide scholarships available each year, and competition is very keen. Unless an applicant has a very high level of academic achievement, it is very diffi cult to obtain one. There is no separate application process for scholarships, and all program applications are assessed at the same time for their eligibility for scholarship support.

For more information, visit: www.adelaide.edu.au/scholarships

FEE-HELP

The tuition for the School’s programs can be paid through the Australian Government’s FEE-HELP (Higher Education Loans Program). This is an interest-free loan facility for eligible Australian citizens and those who have a permanent Humanitarian Visa who are enrolled in fee paying, postgraduate non-research programs. It is not available to Australian Permanent Residents.

Students can elect to:

• Pay the full course fee up-front

• Receive a FEE-HELP loan for the full course fee

• Pay some of the course fee up-front and receive a FEE-HELP loan for the remainder of the course fee.

If a student receives a FEE-HELP loan, then the Australian Government pays the loan amount directly to the University on the student’s behalf. A FEE-HELP debt is then recorded for the student with the Australian Tax Offi ce (ATO). Students in the FEE-HELP scheme must still pay for a relevant text book for each course.

For more information, visit: www.goingtouni.gov.au

Graduate Certifi cate in Management

Although it is not mandatory for students applying directly into this program to have a Bachelor degree, applicants without a degree must have a minimum of seven years full-time relevant work experience.

This experience must be substantiated with a current resume that outlines the applicant’s current and previous management roles and achievements.

All applicants who do not possess a Bachelor degree must provide two supportive Referee Reports with their application. Your referees should be people who are able to relate specifi c and relevant details about your professional performance in an employment setting.

Referee Reports are required to confi rm your suitability and ability to perform well in a rigorous academic program.

Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT)

This test is optional. However, a GMAT score of 600 or over will strengthen your application, particularly if your undergraduate degree grade point average is below 65 percent.

English Language

All programs at The University of Adelaide are taught in English.
