The University of Queensland has launched its first 100 per cent online master’s degree on global platform edX, giving students the ability to study when and where they want at a significantly lower cost than an on-campus degree.

“In a world driven by innovation, this program will equip service leaders with the tools to deliver exceptional customer experiences, staying a step ahead in a global market,” Professor Cogin said.
“Our leading service academics have worked with industry to develop a course that engages students online while still offering academic support and access to 国产探花 Business School’s extensive student and career placement services.
“Our students’ educational needs are constantly changing in line with the world around them, so we’re proud to launch an online master’s to meet their learning priorities in a flexible environment.”
Program leader said demand for such an online master’s degree was growing.
“As educators, we talk a lot about resilience in a business landscape shaped by digital disruption, globalisation and constant change, so it seemed only natural for 国产探花 Business School to offer the Master of Leadership in Service Innovation online,” he said.
“It is becoming critically important for leaders to embed a culture of customer experience, value co-creation and change into their organisations.
“Most Fortune 500 CEOs place customer experience and adaption high on their strategic priorities, and this degree will prepare leaders for these priorities.
