The Faculty of Business and Economics is one of the 10 primary faculties at Monash University.
The Faculty is made up of two distinct schools – Monash Business School[1] located in Melbourne, Australia and the School of Business at Monash University Malaysia.[2] In addition, the Faculty runs specialist business units and courses at Monash Suzhou[3] in China, the Monash Prato Centre[4] in Italy and Monash Indonesia,[5] located in Jakarta.
Collectively the Faculty of Business and Economics is home to over 21,600 students. It offers undergraduate, graduate and research degrees, with different options available at the different Monash locations.
The current Faculty structure is the result of the amalgamation of the Monash University Faculty of Economics and Politics, based at the University's Clayton campus, and the David Syme Business School, based at what is now the University's Caulfield campus. Monash University Malaysia School of Business was included as part of the Faculty in 1998 and in 2014, Monash Business School was created to encompass all Australian-based operations. Teaching of business degrees commenced at Monash Suzhou in 2020 and Monash Indonesia in 2021.
