*Indian universities award different types of Bachelor and Master degrees, with different requirements in terms of length of study. At a minimum, applicants would be required to have a 3-year Bachelor degree or professional Bachelor degree.
Generally, a second class honours would result in an offer being made. However, higher grades may be required depending on the institution of study.
Alternative pathways
Applicants who do not fulfil the academic requirements to the Master of Technology Management may be assessed on other performance indicators. For example, an applicant with an above average mark obtained in a Bachelor degree (for Australian qualifications this would be in the range of 60-64%) may result, on a case by case basis, in an offer being made based on the following performance indicators:
- GMAT score of 580 or above. The Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT) is an exam created to measure the academic abilities needed to succeed in graduate management education. Further information can be obtained from the Graduate Management Council website.
- Completion of other undergraduate, postgraduate or research qualifications
- Professional qualifications completed through relevant professional bodies, for example the Institute of Chartered Accountants or CPA Australia
- Relevant work experience. Please supply a detailed resume, including information on your duties, responsibilities and achievements
