My time in the Master of HRM program was extremely positive. I found the seminar setups were an effective way to learn the required information and also get the class interested and involved. The core subjects were a great base to build and expand on in my own workplace and to get ideas of ways I could improve and positively change my workplace. The support from the staff was amazing and the teachers really understood the issues HR professionals face.

"The Master of Business Law (MBL) has given me comprehensive and intimate knowledge of the law. Being taught how to practically and effectively apply my knowledge of the law to everyday business requirements has greatly assisted me."

"I chose to study at Monash because I wanted a degree from a reputable institution. I also wanted to study at a university where I was confident that I would gain knowledge that would be relevant for my career.

Robert has over 20 years' experience as CEO, Managing Director and Operations Manager of different companies ranging from wealth management to manufacturing.

"I believe a Masters degree is almost mandatory to be considered for senior roles in the current competitive job market. As an HR practitioner an MBA is a strong differentiator as it shows a commitment to developing skills beyond my discipline and allows me to broaden my general business understanding."

"Completing the Masters of Human Resource Management at Monash has equipped me with the contemporary skills and knowledge needed to pursue a successful career in HR and has opened many doors to some great career opportunities."

"Monash provided a real international dynamic learning environment where I met many students from other parts of the world who all had unique backgrounds."

"My Master of Public Policy and Management has given me credible postgraduate qualifications in an area relevant to my work. It provided excellent grounding in how to frame public policy arguments – which I now do on behalf of energy companies facing an emissions constrained future."

"The inclusion of the personal and career development unit adds another dimension to the masters curriculum. Whilst individuals are responsible for managing their own careers, assistance in taking your dreams and aspirations and putting them into a formalised plan in a language the market understands is proving invaluable. I know that I will use some of the tools regularly as part of my ongoing personal development."

"The MBA has definitely increased the number of opportunities for me to move into diverse areas within the business and areas that may not have been offered to me previously. I think it has also helped me think more strategically in the roles that I have been in since I completed my MBA."

"The International Business specialisation has allowed me to have a better understanding of the Asia Pacific region and therefore put me in a position to work in the international job I now have. My role is located in Singapore and Corporate Solutions is a regional business unit."
