MBA5413 MBA Labs: International business project

The MBA Labs: International business project reflects the innovative, applied and research-oriented ethos of Monash University. The MBA Labs will function as a business laboratory, in which ideas are tried and tested, critiqued and improved. The spirit of discovery, enterprise and progress will be evident in the process and the outcomes; the cycle of practice and reflection will exemplify the experience.

In the third MBA applied consulting project, you integrate your knowledge of earlier modules to address the opportunities and/or challenges of host business organisations in an international marketplace. Under the supervision of your professors, and with the support of a nominated project sponsor, you and your team will identify a significant strategic issue for your host organisation in an international market. Desk and field research is undertaken in the domestic market before further work is conducted in the international market; you combine your accumulated knowledge of management theory and consulting practice to tackle the issues. As an alternative to working with a host organisation, you and your teams may regard MBA Labs: International business project as an incubator and propose an international project for your own venture. The output is a presentation and report for the sponsor.
