Services for Students
Students studying at MBS have access to a comprehensive careers management program that comprises face-to-face careers coaching, access to dedicated industry consultants, exposure to cutting-edge online tools, an internship program and on-campus recruitment events.
Careers support begins in orientation and extends beyond graduation. Dedicated Careers staff work with all MBS students (full time, part time, domestic and international) to develop career skills, focus and action plans to support goals. This work may involve planning a significant career change, or focussing on career development within a students’ existing industry/employer, or refining fundamental postgraduate job search skills.
All careers support works in parallel with teaching instruction at MBS ensuring that students maximise their time at the School and remain focussed on their career goals throughout their study. The MBS approach has ensured that our students are highly sought after by organisations in the Asia Pacific region - and beyond - where we are seen as a preferred talent source.
