We have designed our course to produce ‘hands-on’ professionals who have access to a broad range of career possibilities in project management, either as project managers in their own right or as members of a Programme, Portfolio or Project Office.

For people new to project management, this course will give you a thorough grounding in the discipline, enabling you to start in this field with confidence. For existing Project Managers, we can develop and enhance your core skills, as well as provide you with the opportunity to learn new, related techniques.

Choosing a Professional Placement MSc is a win-win for your career, giving you the chance to get real experience, apply your cutting-edge skills in the workplace and stand out to future employers.

In the first year you will have help from the University to find a placement, whilst developing your expertise. You will then spend your second year out in industry on placement, getting the chance to work with industry professionals and grow your network of industry contacts. Bringing your university-acquired knowledge and insights to industry, you will get to make a difference to the workplace and make lasting links with your employer.
