Postgraduate Certificate in Business Development

The Postgraduate Certificate in Business Development (PGCertBusDev) is designed for working professionals seeking to further upskill in business development. It will prepare you for advancement in business development roles by building on your undergraduate qualification. You will acquire further understanding and knowledge of business processes and a strong platform of professional skills. For those who do not meet the GPA requirement for direct entry to the Master of Business Development, the PGCertBusDev in Management can be used as a pathway qualification. Students who achieve a GPA of 4.0 can then enrol in the MBusDev and reassign the courses. The PGCertBusDev is an alternative pathway for anyone who is initially uncertain about committing to the masters programme. You can complete the set of MBusDev Part I core courses for a specialisation in Management or select from the MBusDev specialisations in Business Growth, Technology Commercialisation or Innovation and Product Management. Courses completed for the PGCertBusDev can be reassigned to the masters programme provided the postgraduate certificate has not been awarded.
