History
Macquarie Business School began life as the Centre for Management Studies (CMS) within the school of Economic and Financial Studies at North Ryde, Sydney, Australia in 1969. CMS began offering a Graduate Diploma in Business Administration in 1970 and in 1972 it offered a three-year, part-time Master of Business Administration (MBA). In 1980, Macquarie University's Applied Finance Centre (MAFC) was established and only a few years later, CMS developed its own identity as the Macquarie Graduate School of Management (MGSM); it remained within the School of Economic and Financial Studies.
In the mid-1980s the GSM Advisory board recommended GSM should have a separate identity and its own separate dedicated teaching facility. Funds were raised to build the campus from the late 1980s and during the 1990s.
GSM moved to a 40-week teaching term, four-term year in 1989–1990 and this enabled the development of a 16-unit MBA which could be completed in two years' part-time. Master of Arts programs were developed and later replaced by Master of Management programs. GSM went offshore and began delivering programs in Singapore in 1992 and in Hong Kong in 1994.In 1998, the board decided to integrate the school and merge GSM and MGSM under the MGSM name.
The Sydney CBD campus was opened in 2000. MGSM launched its Online Interactive Study option in Term one of 2013.
In early 2009, the Deputy Vice Chancellor Macquarie University undertook a major review process of MGSM which decided that the school should retain its autonomy. A later review - under then Executive Dean Professor, Eric Knight - merged MGSM, MAFC and the Faculty of Business and Economics into the Macquarie Business School in 2019.
