Gain the advanced knowledge and practical skills required for a successful career in project management or consultancy with this one-year master’s programme taught by purpose-driven experts in the field. The MSc in Project Management blends a strong theoretical foundation with the flexibility to tailor your learning pathway towards either the commercial or behavioural management of projects.
We live in a time where nearly everyone will eventually be involved in a project, whether by initiating it, contributing to its delivery, or benefiting from its outcomes. Effective project management is critical on a global scale, with the GDP of many countries fuelled through projects.
Purpose-led projects are being implemented to deal with huge challenges and transformations – from achieving the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to meeting climate change and net zero targets. As a result, many organisations depend on successful projects run by knowledgeable and skilled project managers.
A key feature of this MSc is the opportunity to undertake a project management consultancy project. This module is designed to provide high-quality, work-related experience, where you will apply the project management knowledge and skills from semesters one and two to real-world challenges. The Consultancy Project will enhance your employability by demonstrating your ability to manage complex projects, solve problems, and make meaningful contributions to organisations.
This master’s programme will equip you to understand and manage the strategic role of projects in organisations, particularly in the context of the evolving ‘project economy’. If you are looking to enter or advance in the project management field, leading both inter and intra-organisational projects across diverse industries, this programme is for you.
