Project Management
Successful project managers are capable of consistently executing complex projects on time and on budget. There are key components that make this possible, such as the ability to motivate and lead a team, formulate effective plans, understand risk, and communicate effectively with stakeholders.
The curriculum of this program was designed to teach the execution of mission-critical projects and to help students conquer the three project environments of people, processes and strategies. The 30-unit Master of Project Management is offered in a part-time evening format for working professionals. A 15-unit Graduate Certificate in Project Management is also offered and can be transferred into the degree at any time.
