MSC STRATEGIC PROJECT MANAGEMENT
In particular this course is suitable for people who have been working on projects as well as graduates of the BSc (Hons) Project Management who wish to take their studies to the next level, but also suitable for non-cognate graduates. The course is research-led and seeks to utilise contemporary issues in the field of strategic and project management, from practice and your own experience to inform the application of theory. Consequently, you will be encouraged to apply your own workplace dilemmas as research topics.
You will have the opportunity to publish papers in local and international conferences hosted by masters students. There is also an optional opportunity to join annual visits to Weurzburg and Toulouse to interact with fellow MSc students and European project focussed companies.
The course is accredited by the Association of Project Managers (APM). We maintain and encourage close links with the APM and a wide spectrum of organisations engaged in projects, which informs much of the course teaching.
The Centre for Project Management has a UK wide presence, attracting students of project management from across the country. You will have the opportunity to publish papers in local and international conferences hosted by masters students. A research-led approach means that in addition to research developed by staff and students on the course, each individual will have many opportunities to investigate areas of particular interest and relevance.

A scholarship of £1,500 is available to new full-time students studying an MA, MSC or MBA (180 credits) who are eligible to pay Home/EU fees. For students studying for an award such as a Postgraduate Diploma (120 credits), Postgraduate Certificate (60 credits), or part-time, a pro rata scholarship is available. The table below provides further details:

| Postgraduate Diploma | 120 | £1000 | £500 |
| Postgraduate Certificate | 60 | £500 | £250 |
The total cost of a Part-time course is determined by the number of modules you take in an academic year. Modules are made up of credit-points, and Part-time fees are typically quoted as fee-per-credit-point.
To calculate the typical cost of study: Fee-per-credit-point (e.g £50) x credit-points per module (e.g20) = module cost of £1000. If you study 4 modules in a year the cost would be £4000 for that year.
