Overview

The Master of Project Management explores how efficient management can provide organisations with improved ability to plan, implement and control their business activities.

This master’s course provides comprehensive project management skills and capabilities on the full project lifecycle; from project initiation, planning, execution to project closing, and teaches strategies for dealing with a broad range of issues encountered within business organisations.

Domestic students have the option to study on campus or via distance delivery mode. Distance refers to learning activities that do not require you to attend campus, but instead allow you to join pre-scheduled virtual classes.

For a two year program, this degree can be combined with a second master’s degree from Sydney Business School, UOW.
