Overview

The growth of international and cross border business activity has increased demand for professionals able to operate across varied cultural, regulatory and competitive environments. The combined Master of Business and Master of International Business integrates core business knowledge with specialised international business capability to support effective engagement in global markets. 
 
Organisations operating in international and globally connected environments value professionals who can manage complexity and apply sound commercial judgement. Studying these degrees together develops broad business understanding alongside applied knowledge of international business contexts. Graduates build the capability to interpret global trends, engage with cultural differences, and support informed decision making in organisations operating across national boundaries. 
 
Graduates are prepared to contribute to strategy, support international activity, and enhance organisational performance in multinational and internationally engaged businesses. 
 
By completing this double master’s program, students will earn two master’s degrees in two years and build expertise in two in-demand areas of business. 
 
See the course handbook for more information. 

The Master of Business builds the fundamental skills you need to succeed in a broad commercial environment. Its flexible structure allows you to choose subjects that match your professional goals and strengthen your understanding of key business functions. 
 
The Master of International Business enables you to develop the knowledge and skills required to operate effectively in international business contexts. International business practice requires professionals who can work across diverse cultural, regulatory and competitive environments. Studied alongside the Master of Business, this degree provides a strong foundation in core business principles while supporting a deeper understanding of international strategy and cross‑border organisational activity. 
 
Combining these master's strengthens your ability to apply business knowledge in international contexts where conditions vary across markets, sectors and regions. You will gain experience analysing international opportunities, responding to regulatory and competitive change and supporting decision‑making that accounts for cultural, economic and operational differences. 
 
You will graduate prepared to add value to organisations that operate globally and need people who can think clearly, work flexibly and understand international business environments.
