Course summary

Project Management uses organisational initiative to complete a range of tasks such as the construction of new buildings, developing the next app or designing innovations in the healthcare industry. Underpinning the fundamentals of the field is the need to manage projects within constraints including time, cost, quality and scope. The journey to becoming an effective project manager starts with the acquisition of the right tools and technologies to support decision-making and ensure timely delivery of project objectives. The MSc in Project Management has been designed to reflect on the principles and methodologies of the leading professional project management bodies and has been successfully awarded Academic Accreditation by the Association of Project Managers (APM). The programme is designed to facilitate the development of technical competence in key areas including: risk management, monitoring and control of projects and procurement. Students will establish a core understanding of operations management, big data management and the ability to model and simulate complex problems which can plague project delivery. You will begin by developing an understanding of the terminology, core theory and tools requisite for project management activity. This is reinforced by other core modules such as uncertainty and risk (i.e. the ability to reduce/prevent problems in projects), controlling and monitoring and leadership, which is a requirement for leading large/small project teams. A variety of electives are also offered including big data, logistics, operations and simulation modelling which provide an opportunity for students to focus on their areas of interest and diversify their learning, based on future career decisions. Additionally, this programme offers other opportunities: Equip those who wish to pursue qualifications, such as the PMP and PMI-CAPM for those with some project management experience, the PFQ for beginners, and the CQRM depending on their project management interests, with the appropriate knowledge and expertise To foster more practice as a project manager we have a suite of games available to test your PM skills: UNLOCK PM and Scope, Resources, Schedule Networking with industry experts, through guest lectures & case challenges, provide opportunities for students to experience real-world scenarios which affect projects. Students have a choice of either a three-month MSc project (industrial partner or research-based) or Business Simulation Analysis both with the same 60 credit value.
