PROJECT MANAGEMENT – Bsc (Hons)

Overview Every sector of the current business landscape needs competent project managers who can successfully implement innovative ideas and strategies. This APM-accredited Project Management course will teach you the ins and outs of the tools and techniques projects managers need to master. Currently, engineering, retail, technology, education, healthcare and tourism are only a few of the industries that make use of project management. In order to have an impact on the deployment of projects in a business, students need to possess broad knowledge and solid concepts. In a world where only 22% of projects meet their original objectives, specialists still believe that 87% of businesses regarded project teams as being essential to the eventual success of a project (according to research carried out by the Association of Project Management). These figures prove that competent professionals can truly change the world and this course can put you on that path. Course duration: 3 years Start dates: January/April/August/September
