BSc (Hons) Project Management

On our APM-accredited BSc (Hons) Project Management course, you’ll learn the tools and techniques required to make a real impact on the design, deployment, and success of a wide range of projects, as well as to successfully manage interdisciplinary teams within diverse organisational structures.

The rapid growth of project management means that today it’s used in almost every global industry, including engineering, technology, education, healthcare, events management, community and environmental programmes, tourism, creative industries, and everything in between. This means your degree will provide you with the background to enter the sector of your choice once you graduate and fill those all important industry gaps.

On the course you’ll study contemporary themes in project management which will demonstrate to employers that you possess broad knowledge of the latest concepts and the practical skills to bring your ideas to life. And, as modern projects are becoming increasingly dynamic and challenging, your studies will have a digital-first focus, giving you the knowledge and critical understanding of modern business solutions to make a lasting impact in the workplace.
