Bachelor of Project Management
For variety and challenge
Project management is about delivering successful results for business, government and the community. It requires passion, resolve and vision.
Project managers are expected to take charge of complex tasks and keep things on track. They recruit people, coordinate activities, organise and problem-solve.
What will you do?
Our Bachelor of Project Management gives you the skills and knowledge to excel in the professional realm. You will:
- research project management practices and concepts
- assess and manage risk in a wide variety of project scenarios
- build the soft skills needed to motivate and lead teams
- develop specific knowledge in an industry or field of your choice
- study ways of fostering creativity and innovation.
Where could it take you?
Opportunities for qualified project managers are increasing at pace. You could guide a defence project or manage sporting events. You might work on the global stage guiding community projects in less developed countries. Perhaps you’ll lead an IT team in Silicon Valley or oversee the development of a multi-storey tower in Dubai.
