As they become immersed in their study, they are introduced to new ways of thinking. They explore innovative problem-solving techniques, discover the strength of collaboration and are encouraged to think deeply and analytically about the global future. In other words, they undergo a transformation: they begin to develop the approaches of a 21st century senior business leader.
 

They cover the business essentials, while taking advantage of RMIT’s unique real world focus and deep industry connections — solving real challenges and building a network of business connections that can lead to some interesting choices. After completing our capstone executive consulting subject, they step into the world of senior business management with a very different perspective on the world, and on the opportunities that exist for them.
 

This is why, when discussing their careers, our alumni often say things like “I never thought I’d be doing this,” or “When I enrolled in this degree, I never imagined the opportunities.”

As an RMIT EMBA student, you will develop the tools to design your own future. You will come to see the breadth of possibilities that exist in the world of senior business, and you will discover the leader in yourself.
 

According to Job Outlook, the most common annual salary in Australia for a business consultant is between $130k and $150k, and over 50% of MBA graduates worldwide are senior managers or board directors.
