MBT Graduate Attributes Overview

Graduate attributes describe the qualities, skills and understandings that a graduate should have acquired after successfully undertaking a university program. The MBT graduate attributes are aligned to the generic UNSW graduate attributes (these can be accessed via the UNSW website).

The MBT graduate attributes are developed in participants via the course design, the teaching and learning strategies and the assessment.
