Marketers face fresh challenges as marketing channels evolve, new technologies emerge and strategies change. An MBA can equip you with advanced strategic skills and industry insights while developing self-discipline and high-level communication skills.
At MBA Discovery, we’re here to help guide you towards the MBA program that will meet your ambitions and aspirations in this ever-evolving field.
Studying a general MBA will equip you with the fundamental skills required as a business leader. For marketers, a general MBA can also enhance your marketing skills and position you ahead of your peers.
An MBA is an investment and one that’s well worth making. As a marketer with an MBA, career advancement and opportunities can open up to you. Those in C-suite and other management positions in marketing can command impressive salaries, such as executive directors of communications (up to $300,000 a year), marketing directors (up to $150,000 a year) and PR directors (around $90,000 a year).

Marketing professionals looking to upskill and excel in leadership often think a specialised MBA is the only way to go. However, a general MBA equips students with essential and core marketing skills, as well as business and leadership skills needed to flourish in senior marketing positions.
The best MBA for marketing professionals will depend on your circumstances, current role and career aspirations. For example, JCU’s MBA encourages its students to take a global perspective of local issues to give them an edge. In comparison, SCU’s interactive online learning platform has been designed so students can be just as connected to academics and peers as their on-campus counterparts.
All MBAs available through MBA Discovery’s partners can be completed online. Many students find the flexibility of online postgraduate courses appealing, allowing them to gain qualifications without compromising their current career or lifestyle.
A core unit in VU’s online MBA is the Marketing Management unit. Students will be encouraged to critically analyse the choices confronting marketing decision-makers in alignment with their organisation’s goals, competencies and resources.
Even leaders not involved in marketing benefit from the marketing units in an MBA. For example, RMIT’s Marketing for Managers unit introduces fundamental marketing theory and practical techniques.
Fees vary depending on the course and the university. The total cost of an MBA is calculated based on the cost of each individual unit completed.
An MBA is a significant commitment, but you are not alone in starting your studies. A Student Enrolment Advisor is here to assist you in selecting the best MBA course for you and to guide you through the entire process of becoming an MBA student.
When you start exploring MBAs you’ll discover each university has its own eligibility criteria. Generally, you’ll need to hold a bachelor’s degree in any discipline. However, some universities will accept students who have significant experience in their chosen field if they don’t meet the education requirements. It’s a good idea to carefully read each of the university’s eligibility criteria and course details.
Some universities offer recognition of prior learning to students who have relevant professional or academic qualifications. If you do receive recognition of prior learning, you may get a credit or exemption for units, which can in turn, reduce the study time for your chosen MBA course.
Here is a breakdown of the fees of each of the four MBA Discovery university partners. For more information, refer to the university guidelines.
