The University of New South Wales' Australian School of Business has its main campus in Sydney which serves over 40,000 students - including its part-time MBA programme (AGSM MBA) delivered in Hong Kong.
The AGSM MBA is the oldest such programme in Australia and is consistently ranked as the country's best, and amongst the finest globally.
As with all MBA programmes, it is worth reflecting on the experiences of AGSM MBA graduates, all from different walks of life and to delve into what they became after attaining their MBAs.
This year's graduate Caroline Frangopoulos works in banking. Her motivation for pursuing an MBA was to keep her skills current in an ever-changing business world.
'Having not done any serious study since university more than a decade ago, I decided an MBA was important to broaden my perspective and equip me for the future,' she said, adding that the programme's reputation and flexibility were also critical factors.
Similarly, 2005 graduate Lawrence Chan, former chief financial officer of STACI Corp, a United States-based provider of custom-designed products and service solutions to the automotive and telecommunications industries, believed he needed formal business training.
'The AGSM MBA was the one I chose due to its ranking and reputation,' Chan said.
