Masters Qualifying Program (MQP), Leading to Master of Commerce - Marketing

Program Overview

The Master Qualifying Program (MQP) is a one-semester non-award program designed for students who already have a tertiary qualification but who do not qualify for direct entry into a Master’s degree at Curtin University. The emphasis is on developing the skills necessary to succeed in postgraduate-level studies.


Leading to: Master of Commerce
This internationally focused, two-year master degree is ideal if you are looking to move into a new career in business.

During your first semester, you’ll study core commerce units that will enhance your employability, including business project management, business analytics and data visualisation, and transformative technologies that impact society and its business practices. These units will help to extend your core knowledge in varied areas of business and STEM, and allow you to network with a wider range of peers.

You’ll then choose a major of your choice to suit your interests and gain knowledge of practices, principle and concepts in that business discipline. You’ll undertake practical learning experiences that give you the ability to solve complex business problems. You’ll also gain knowledge and research skills that you can apply to your particular industry.

Towards the end of your course, you’ll complete a capstone experience, which may include an internship, consultancy experience, research project or study tour. Your capstone experience will grow your business acumen, skill sets, networks and knowledge of industry settings before your graduate.


Major: Marketing
This course provides you with a comprehensive and in-depth coverage of the principles of marketing management and strategy, buyer behaviour and marketing research as well as key specialist topics relevant to contemporary marketing theory and practice.

The course covers aspects of marketing communication, digital marketing and the application of marketing in particular industries, such as tourism. You will have the opportunity to apply your critical thinking and analytical abilities to modern marketing challenges, with a particular focus on strategic branding, B2B services marketing, and sustainable and societal marketing.

As part of your studies, you will undertake a significant research project providing the opportunity to pursue a topic of your particular professional interest.

The course is industry-focused and relevant to the marketing profession, developed with input from professional bodies such as the Australian Marketing Institute and the Chartered Institute of Marketing, UK. There is regular interaction with industry through guest speakers and practical workplace projects.
