Why study Project Management?

Project management gives individuals a highly marketable skill set with a broad career application. On its own, project management is a powerful skill set to bring to any organization, setting up efficiencies and overseeing projects, large and small, from concept to completion. These individuals are at the core of an organization’s development, client management and revenue creation.

Paired with a concurrent degree, advanced skills in engineering, health care, sustainability, management, and many other professional fields, are given a boost by providing additional advanced skills in approaching complex projects for better outcomes.

Project managers supervise a project’s costs, schedules, resources, risks and people. It is a great career path for those who are good communicators, detail-oriented, organized and self-disciplined, excellent at problem-solving and decision-making and work well in a team, seeing the strengths of others.
