Course Description

This one-year, full-time MSc Project Management is designed for graduates who want to move into project delivery roles, and for people already coordinating projects who need a recognised qualification behind them. The programme is delivered by flexible distance learning: study materials are online and there are no live lectures to attend, so you decide when you study. You will work on planning, scheduling, risk, budgeting, stakeholder management and the delivery methods used across construction, IT, healthcare and business projects. Applications for the September 2026 intake close on 10 September 2026. UniStart supports your application from the first call to enrolment at no cost to you, and the university makes the final admission decision.
