Director of Graduate Studies, Associate Professor Gary ChittickThe Perth Graduate School of Business offers postgraduate students an innovative approach to teaching and learning
The state-of-the-art facilities will be home to postgraduate Business courses, both research and coursework.
A wide range of disciplines will be offered including accounting, finance, management, marketing, human resources, law & justice, electronic commerce, sport management, enterprise integration, leadership and urban & regional planning.
Countless career opportunities
Business courses aren't just for corporate high-flyers. A business degree can lead to careers in not-for-profit or public sectors and industries as diverse as mining, tourism, school management, fashion or agriculture.
No matter what they do, most organisations need an accountant, a manager or a marketing professional. Plus many business graduates put their skills to use as specialist consultants or in operating their own small business.
One of the best decisions I made career wise was studying business at ECU.
Not only has it enabled me to develop my theoretical skills, it has provided me with the opportunity to make some life long friends and contacts who are either in a similar career or have the same aspirations.
My current role at Unisys West as manager of service delivery and projects is the most exciting I have had since entering the workforce. I truly believe that my postgraduate studies at ECU have helped me get to where I am and will be one of the driving forces of my career.
