QUT Executive Master of Business Administration (EMBA)

QUT Business School

QUT’s Executive MBA is different to a conventional MBA. It’s designed for executives with at least 10 years of industry experience with a desire to hone their leadership skills and share the journey with an elite cohort.

The Executive MBA program commences in Brisbane and Canberra in January of each year. In Brisbane, classes are scheduled once every four weeks over a long weekend from Friday to Sunday with the inclusion of a two-week international study tour during the second year of the program.

In Canberra, the delivery will focus on an eight-week cycle, with class sessions taking place every eight weeks supported by online learning and facilitation for the remainder of the cycle.

These intensive sessions allow participants to schedule dedicated time to study with minimal interference to their business commitments.
