ICL Graduate Business School

• ICL Business School was established in 2002 by Ewen Mackenzie-Bowie as part of Academic Colleges Group. In 2007, Ewen took over the business school and incorporated it with International College of Linguistics (ICL). Reflecting the Business School’s shift to predominantly level 7, 8 and 9 programmes it was rebranded to ICL Graduate Business School.

• ICL Graduate Business School is a boutique university-level business school in New Zealand, offering Master’s degrees, postgraduate and graduate diplomas in business, informatics, hospitality and tourism, and a graduate diploma in teaching early childhood education, which leads to teacher registration. While over 80% of our students are postgraduate we also offer undergraduate diplomas in business, with pathways to university degrees.

ICL Education Group is committed to research. Many of the present staff are active in research and all future permanent academic staff will be expected to embrace the research culture of the School. Our research objectives:

• Research into areas that reflect ICL’s core teaching activity, especially at a graduate and postgraduate level
• Publish an annual ICL Journal
• Publish quarterly Research Outlook newsletters
• Maintain staff contributions to internationally recognised, peer reviewed journals and publications
• Deliver monthly in-house research seminars
• Conduct and publish research projects in co-operation with external bodies
