MSc Programme and Project Management

at University of Chester

You will have the opportunity to gain practical skills and undertake research tasks, while being supported by our expert tutor team. Critical thinking, analysis and reflection as well as research and academic writing are developed throughout the entire course. Modules are based upon methodologies and modern techniques for programme and project management.  

Our staff get to know individual students and we pride ourselves in making time to help students after lectures and tutorials. We understand that Master's are challenging degrees and we are always happy to have one-to-one sessions with students to go over concepts and questions with students during our open office hours or any other time we are free as part of our ‘open door’ approach.

You will have the opportunity to learn from fellow classmates and highly qualified faculty. Most of our students have already been in the workforce for several years. Class discussions and team projects will present you with opportunities to network and explore career possibilities.

Project Management is a key skill that has been witnessing growing demand due to the increasing scale and complexity of projects being undertaken across all industries.  Demand over the next 10 years for project managers is growing faster than demand for workers in other occupations. Organisations, however, face risks from this talent gap.
