Master of Science - Project Management

With factors like the expanding population and new technologies on the rise, projects are becoming bigger and more complex. Skilled project managers are not only in high demand across the globe but also play a vital role in any project team.

London Met has designed this course so students can grow their knowledge and expertise in all aspects of project management, from devising strategies to kickstart a project to analysing business goals, controlling resources, onboarding project stakeholders, and successful project delivery.

Combining theory and practical work, on this MSc students will have the chance to engage in authentic learning experiences and assessments, while getting hands-on in supporting real-world projects. What’s more, students will gain valuable experience collaborating with established national and international organisations. Through active project visits, students will also gain first hand exposure to the challenges, excitement and career prospects this line of work has to offer. London Met maintains strong connections with employers across all aspects of project management, involving them in both the Project Management MSc curriculum design and aspects of the career education services.

Students will experience all of this while studying at the lively Holloway campus, conveniently located just a short tube ride away from both the City and the West End.

Project management is not only a highly rewarding career choice, it’s also a top priority for all organisations, no matter the industry. Skilled and experienced project managers are sought after by employers to plan and deliver projects.

This programme has been specifically designed to develop students into well-practiced and confident project managers, with not only excellent communication skills, but the technical skills to match. Both of which are extremely valuable when leading and motivating project teams in achieving client business goals.

Students will gain the necessary knowledge, skills and behaviours to successfully carry out advanced project management principles and planning. Tasks such as, strategic procurement, design, assembling a cross-disciplinary project team, establishing project objectives, finance and monitoring progress within a dynamic project environment, will become second nature to them.

Through real-life project scenarios, students will gain experience using cutting-edge technologies, while being taught the latest project management methodologies. They will take part in various site visits, live industry projects, and have the option to attend exciting guest lectures.
