Master of Project Management

Monash University, Melbourne, VIC, Australia

About this program

Monash's Master of Project Management is built for people managing or aspiring to manage complex projects across sectors including construction, IT, government and the not-for-profit world, rather than for a single industry's project delivery style. The course moves through project management essentials, advanced theory and practice, and applied studies, covering stakeholder management, communications, organisational politics and adaptive approaches to problems that don't fit standard project frameworks. A distinguishing feature is the use of real projects, drawn from corporate, government and social contexts both in Australia and internationally, so assessment involves applying frameworks to live problems rather than only case studies. Flexible full-time and part-time delivery options make it workable for people continuing to work while they study, which matters given the degree's target audience of working project professionals rather than recent graduates. Entry requires a bachelor's degree in a relevant discipline with a credit average, or equivalent qualifications and experience, and graduates typically move into project leadership roles spanning engineering delivery, IT implementation and corporate change programs.
