A Master of Business is recognised as a wise investment for a senior career, and is likely to boost earning potential. A master’s degree by research is also essential for those considering a possible academic career route.
The Master of Business is a research master’s degree that can be completed in just 18 months. Throughout your studies you develop advanced research skills, as well as a rigorous understanding of a specialist business field relevant to your interests.
The programme equips you with the knowledge and critical thinking skills in demand in today’s complex and changing business environments. Graduates of the Master of Business are well placed for further study in the PhD programme.
Explore advanced level topics in economics and research an area of your interest with the Economics specialisation in the Master of Business.
You'll work collaboratively with your peers and with academic staff who have been involved in applied research projects for government agencies around the world and international agencies like the IMF. The AUT School of Economics conducts research in a range of areas, including the effects of international trading arrangements, optimal regulation of labour and other markets, and the use of big data in social programmes.
Class sizes are small and each student has an individual academic supervisor. Many of our postgraduate students also work part-time as tutors or research assistants in the School of Economics. As part of your studies you learn how to use sophisticated statistical software to analyse business, financial or social data – skills that are highly valued by many employers.
