Course content

Looking to step into international project management? Join us to get the specialist grounding you need to be able to steer projects forward confidently across borders.

Globally-based companies are continually on the look out for highly skilled project managers capable of leading successful international projects, and tackling cross-cultural issues, across a range of disciplines.

On this master’s, you’ll gain the solid foundation you need in all the relevant management theories, approaches and methods – while also developing practical skills in areas like strategic and financial management.

The skillset you go away with will allow you to confidently steer projects forward and mitigate against the challenges inherent in projects spanning different countries and involving multinational suppliers and teams.

Learning put into context

The business landscape is changing rapidly – and we’ll explore the impact of those changes on how organisations need to plan and run global projects today, and into the future.

For example, how can project managers effectively manage teams across international and cultural borders, especially as work increasingly relies on digital technologies? How can project managers realise the gains of being globally integrated while also being responsive to local demands and needs?

Informed by research

Drawing on the latest interdisciplinary research in this field, you’ll learn from our expert academics and guest lecturers from industry, and benefit from extensive networking opportunities at careers and round table events.
