Introduction
PG Dip Project Management
We offer the Postgraduate Diploma (PG Dip) for those who are looking to complete a postgraduate qualification, in less than one year. The PG Dip is designed to be undertaken in two terms (6 months). On this course, students select modules from our existing MSc Project Management.
The PG Dip Project Management is aimed at graduates who have an interest in developing specialist knowledge and a critical understanding of some of the key aspects of project management. A qualification in project management is sought after by many organisations in the public, private and not-for-profit sectors.
Students can develop an understanding of the most important concepts in project management, applying theoretical concepts and project management models to real-life case studies.
For certain modules, we have partnered with IBM to integrate their Enterprise Design Thinking course into our PG Dip Project Management. Enterprise Design Thinking is 'a framework that aligns multi-disciplinary teams and the real needs of their users. When teams apply these scalable methods, they’re able to move faster and deliver differentiated outcomes over and over again.
As part of your study, you will gain free access to the IBM Enterprise Design Thinking digital Practitioner course (2.5 hours) and on successful completion, learners become badged Enterprise Design Thinkers.
Benefits include:
Learners can share their badge on LinkedIn and broadcast their skill to future employers.
Access to the course Toolkit with over 20 activities and resources designed for daily practice.
