Course overview

The Master of Marketing Management (MMM) program equips graduates and professionals from any discipline outside of Business to become evidence-based decision-makers, innovative problem solvers, responsible social citizens and future leaders.

In a typical first semester, students will study four introductory courses that provide a common foundation for all Research School of Management (RSM) postgraduate coursework programs. This common core will enable students within RSM to have a broad understanding of key management discipline areas that will support future studies towards a wide range of potential career paths.

This is followed by specialised marketing courses that provide knowledge about how to combine aspects of economics, commerce, psychology, sociology and statistical analysis in the assessment of market behaviour and the development of appropriate business responses.

The GPA for a Bachelor's program will be calculated from (i) a completed Bachelor's degree using all grades and/or (ii) a completed Bachelor's degree using all grades other than those from the last semester (or equivalent study period) of the Bachelor's degree. The higher of the two calculations will be used as the basis for admission.

Ranking and English language proficiency: At a minimum, all applicants must meet program-specific academic/non-academic requirements and English language requirements. Admission to most ANU programs is on a competitive basis. Therefore, meeting all admission requirements does not automatically guarantee entry.

In line with the University's admissions policy and strategic plan, an assessment for admission may include competitively ranking applicants on the basis of specific academic achievement, English language proficiency and diversity factors. Applicants will first be ranked on a GPA ('GPA1') that is calculated using all but the last semester (or equivalent) of the Bachelor's degree used for admission purposes. If required, ranking may further be confirmed on the basis of:

  • A GPA ('GPA2') calculated on the penultimate and antepenultimate semesters (or equivalent) of the Bachelor's degree used for admission purposes; and/or
  • Demonstrating higher-level English language proficiency

Prior to enrolment in this ANU program, all students who gain entry will have their Bachelor's degree reassessed to confirm that the minimum requirements were met.
