About the Centre
The Centre began in 1998 as the Australian Centre for International Business, a collaborative venture between the University of Melbourne and the University of New South Wales. During the early years of the Centre' s existence a number of business reports and a major project on Diversity in the workplace were produced. Material from this period is still on the web site. However, this type of research is no longer a core part of the activities of the MCIB. From 2003 the management of the Centre reverted to the University of Melbourne. In 2007 the name was changed to the Melbourne Centre for International Business. It continues to deliver leading edge international business research.
The Melbourne Centre for International Business is eclectic in its interdisciplinary areas, studying the international aspects of strategy and management, human resource management, industrial relations, corporate history, accounting, finance, information systems, organisational behaviour and marketing.
Members of the Melbourne Centre for International Business have published over 20 books and 200 research papers, conference proceedings, chapters in books and consulting reports spanning all fields of international business research.
