Programmes
Available Programmes
Founded in 2000, we are the University of Pretoria’s internationally accredited business school, based in Sandton, Johannesburg – South Africa’s economic hub. At GIBS we significantly improve responsible individual and organisational performance, primarily in South Africa and increasingly in our broader African environment, through high-quality business and management education.
We offer a range of post-graduate academic, senior executive, short course and extended programmes specialising in various aspects of general management. As of 2018, we also offer a full-time postgraduate diploma for recent graduates with no prior work experience.
Centres
Our commitment to thought-leadership is demonstrated by a number of centres within the school, including: the Centre for Africa Management and Markets (which focuses on generating and sharing a sophisticated understanding of business in markets throughout Africa); the Centre for Leadership, Ethics and Dialogue (which encompasses a myriad of activities, programmes and strategic engagements aimed at enhancing interaction between business, government, unions and civil society ); and the Entrepreneurship Development Academy (which works with entrepreneurs in both the formal and informal sectors, at various phases of their business development).
