Associate Professor Alessandra Capezio
“Evidence-Based Management is about
bringing critical thinking and the best available
evidence into management decision-making
and practice. Our world-first evidence-
based MBA program integrates principles
of evidence-based practice across the
curriculum so that we can develop superior
decision-making capabilities that increase
the likelihood of favourable outcomes for
business and organisations – it is part of our
mission. This approach represents a much
needed shift in management education. It’s a
gutsy move away from tradition, but one that
will ensure the future of business.”

Student profile
Jiani Li
“When I was thinking about my graduate
study, I chose museum and heritage studies
because I really want to know how I can
create interesting exhibitions. ANU made me
feel happy, at peace, and I enjoyed every
day of my life there. After I finished my study
at ANU in July 2017, I returned to China and
worked in a cultural heritage research team
of the Chinese Academy of Cultural Heritage
(CACH) in Beijing. Without ANU, I would not
have been able to find such a good job.”
