As the logistical complexity and technical requirements of today’s projects evolve to be more sophisticated, the demand for skilled project managers cannot be underestimated. In fact, many top executives are acquiring advanced skills in project management to gain a competitive advantage.
The MS specialization in Project Management is a unique opportunity to combine a broad knowledge of business and management principles with a specific knowledge of successful project-based strategies.
Students with a broad range of professional responsibilities—from working on complex projects for global companies to designing IT infrastructure to completing consulting contracts—will benefit from this detailed examination of a project’s conception, planning, budgeting, resource allocation, and implementation.
The Boston University Online Master of Science in Project Management will enable students to achieve success at the highest levels of management by preparing graduates to:
- Manage complex projects
- Facilitate relationships between the project team and customers
- Balance competing demands among scope, time, cost, and quality
