In collaboration with
In an Australian-first initiative, MIT Sloan School of Management and QUT Business School are collaborating, with a focus on an innovative immersion program for QUT MBA students.
For two weeks, selected QUT students will immerse themselves into the MIT ecosystem where they will learn about leadership, entrepreneurship and digital transformation.
'The MIT Immersion Program overlayed with my Executive MBA studies has provided me with the skillsets and growth mindset to take on future senior and executive positions in my career with confidence and capability to lead and act in unfamiliar and complex environments.'

'The MIT Immersion Program really opened my eyes to how entrepreneurial practices can apply beyond only start-ups, which is how I traditionally thought about entrepreneurship and innovation. In fact, anyone can be an entrepreneur, even within their own organisations.'
