Introduction

The Postgraduate Diploma in Business provides the skills and competencies that will allow graduates to gain employment within the private and public sector in relevant business positions. It also provides a pathway to the Master of Business, Master of Business Information Systems, Master of Marketing, and Master of Professional Accounting programmes.
