Yes, the Graduate Diploma in Business Administration provides a pathway to the Master of Business Administration (Global) at Victoria University for those with relevant professional experience.

The course is a full-fee course (not government subsidised), with indicative fees of AU$33,500 per year for a full-time student. In addition to tuition fees, students will also need to pay a Student Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF). Scholarships are available to help offset costs.
