Project management is a highly regarded discipline, with demand increasing for individuals with project management skills in the Australian workforce1. Many industries rely on specialist project and program professionals with excellent practical skills and essential knowledge to plan and deliver projects on time, within budget, objectives, specifications, and outcomes that ultimately deliver value to their organisation and stakeholders.
You will graduate with the advanced skills and knowledge to apply project, program and portfolio management methodology to specific professional field(s) of expertise; work in interdisciplinary project teams; and assume the role of project manager from inception to commissioning.
You’ll also have plenty of opportunities to network, exchange ideas and share experiences with practising project managers as well as other professionals. As part of this degree you will do a major integrated research project which could focus on a real issue in your workplace.
This degree utilises the Standard for Project Management and A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) as a learning framework as well as relevant other industry standards in the field that are widely recognised and applied across different industries, businesses and government institutions.
This postgraduate qualification is offered as part of a suite of four programs (Graduate Certificate, Graduate Diploma, a 1.5-year Master and a 2.0-year Master). Each qualification extends to the next, so you can easily transition to a Master level qualification. If you decide to exit this degree having completed the required four core courses, you will receive the Graduate Certificate in Project Management. If you have completed the required eight core courses, you will receive the Graduate Diploma in Project Management. If you have completed the eleven core required courses, you will receive the Master in Project and Program Management.
