Whether you are working on complex projects for a global company, designing IT infrastructure, or completing a consulting contract, you’re likely to be involved with project conception, planning, budgeting, resource allocation, and implementation. BU’s MSPM program will enable you to manage complex projects, facilitate relationships between the project team and customers, and balance competing demands, such as scope, time, cost, and quality. The Master of Science in Project Management program consists of 12 courses for a total of 48 credits. The program can be completed in 6 semesters, or approximately 24 months. You will take two online, seven-week courses per semester, focusing on one course at a time. Boston University has undergone an extensive review by PMI’s Global Accreditation Center (GAC), which has confirmed its qualifications and credibility. Individuals who complete this program earn 1,500 hours of project management experience requirement to sit for the Project Management Professional (PMP®) Credential Examination. Currently, an applicant with a bachelor’s degree (or higher) must document 4,500 hours spent leading and directing project tasks. If the applicant documents that he or she graduated from a GAC accredited program, then only 3,000 work experience hours need to be presented to fulfill this requirement. |
