    Graduate Diploma in Business Research Methods

    About

    Deepen your understanding of core research methods and techniques that will equip you with the knowledge for further study and greater professional opportunities.

    Advanced research skills are highly valued in both academia and the commercial world, and the Business School is at the forefront of teaching business research methods.

    For your Graduate Diploma in Business Research Methods over one year full-time (or part-time equivalent), you can choose from a comprehensive range of elective courses that cover topics such as economics-based research in financial accounting, corporate finance theory, empirical methods in finance and capital markets research, and advanced marketing theory and research.

    You'll also work among internationally recognised leaders who are finding solutions to some of the world’s most pressing business issues. Under their experienced guidance, you'll learn the qualitative and quantitative research skills and scientific methods required to conduct your own research project or complete a thesis, for which you'll define a research question, establish a methodology, undertake a literature review and draw conclusions.
