Welcome to MSc Management with Project Management

The MSc Management with Project Management has been developed to provide students with a solid understanding of the fundamental subjects needed to manage a business and projects within a complex changing environment. Projects are ubiquitous nowadays, formalising the way in which companies organise and implement the constant improvements required to successfully operate in competitive markets and usually involving high risk and uncertainty.

Modules in finance, project planning, risk, and procurement can help to equip students with the tools, techniques, and knowledge to be able to work effectively in different contexts. Students have the opportunity to develop their knowledge and skills in key areas such as leadership, marketing, financial analysis, and people management as well as focusing on project planning, delivering projects and programmes, and risk management.

The MSc Management with Project Management is open to applicants from all educational backgrounds. No previous experience of management studies or project management is required. For those who have already studied a related discipline, this course offers the opportunity to progress their knowledge to an advanced level. The programme is also suitable for those who have proven managerial experience which they wish to consolidate with academic qualifications.

This programme can be studied full-time or part-time to meet the needs of students who are seeking to develop their career by combining academic study with their existing employment. Part-time students would usually be expected to complete the programme within two years. The programme is available for either an October or February start.

The course is offered with two separate pathways. Students can either complete one year of study or undertake a two-year course where one year is spent in Professional Practice to gain hands-on experience through a paid placement. Students will be responsible for sourcing their own paid placements but will be supported by dedicated employability specialists. Please note: students need to choose the Professional Practice pathway from the outset when applying for the course, and it is only available for an October start.

Welcome to MSc Management with Project Management

How You Study

The MSc Management with Project Management has been designed to equip you with all the necessary skills and knowledge to design, plan, and execute projects successfully. The programme brings together relevant contemporary academic theories and research with practical understanding of project management within organisations. This will be developed by enabling students to share knowledge, relate this to theories developed from relevant research, and learning by practical application. Through the development of an integrated and critically aware understanding of management in the context of contemporary business issues, the programme involves students in a demanding process of personal and professional development.

Our focus on the international dimensions of business and management and project management reflects the global environment in which organisations increasingly function. This global mindset is realised in our international faculty and student community. Our academics and students are drawn from all over the world, and bring with them unique experiences and perspectives which can enrich students' learning.

All students will study the following taught modules:

Organisational Psychology
Leadership Development
International Marketing Planning
Financial Analysis, Appraisal and Decision-Making
Project Planning and Management
Strategy in Context
Delivering Projects, Programmes and Portfolios
Global Project Teams
Management of Project and Contract Risk

Students can then progress to complete the compulsory final project. It may take a variety of potential formats, including an independent research project, design of a new enterprise, a work-based project, or a consultancy project.

Contact Hours and Independent Study

Each module typically consists of three weekly teaching hours over a teaching term. Students will normally study four modules per term and therefore 12 hours per week. Please note, irrespective of whether students are full-time or part-time, their hours of study may vary from term to term and can be spread throughout the week.

Students planning to study the degree on a part-time basis, will be studying two modules per term with six hours of contact time on a weekly basis.

Postgraduate level study involves a significant proportion of independent study, exploring the material covered in lectures and seminars. As a general guide, for every hour in class, students are expected to spend at least three to four hours in independent study.

Although a proportion of the contact time will be spent in teaching, emphasis will also be placed upon the use of the student group as a resource for learning. The style of teaching will vary to reflect individual module objectives. The modules utilise methods of teaching and learning which are appropriate to postgraduate level study and effective collaborative learning such as debates, presentations, and report writing. There will also be group discussions of practical situations and problems, making an extensive use of case studies in national and international contexts, simulation materials and, where relevant, students' own experiences.

An Introduction to Your Modules

† Some courses may offer optional modules. The availability of optional modules may vary from year to year and will be subject to minimum student numbers being achieved. This means that the availability of specific optional modules cannot be guaranteed. Optional module selection may also be affected by staff availability.

Delivering Projects, Programmes and Portfolios 2022-23BUS9045MLevel 72022-23A key role in project management relates to the delivery of successful projects, programmes and portfolios. This involves the use of varied techniques to ensure a timely and effective implementation of project plans. The topics covered include project portfolios and programmes, governance, project appraisal and selection, value management as well as some methodologies alternative to the traditional project management.CoreFinancial Analysis, Appraisal and Decision Making 2022-23ACC9703MLevel 72022-23The module aims to develop the student's ability to critically analyse the financial statements for single and group companies, understanding how the financial statements are prepared, considering compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and the relevant International Accounting Standards. Students taking the module will examine both financial and non-financial matters that affect a business on a day to day basis and develop proactive ideas to solve these issues. The module will help to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to understand corporate financial performance and the relevance of accounting information, including the implications for the organisation, stakeholders, and for effective corporate governance.CoreGlobal Project Teams 2022-23BUS9716MLevel 72022-23Global projects present more problems and carry much greater risk than domestic, one-country projects. Various challenges usually include interpersonal relations in a dispersed team and with stakeholders, language barriers, work tracking and control, different time zones, local regulations, politics and so forth. Given the ever-growing ubiquity of such undertakings, there is a drastic need for project managers who are able to appreciate and overcome the above practical challenges in order to deliver their projects on time, within budget and with all the benefits initially planned. This module aims to provide students with the skills to be effective when working as part of a global project team. The module is specifically designed to provide an awareness of how technology affects communication and collaboration in organisations. The module has an applied focus and requires students to reflect on and apply teamwork theories and techniques to practical situations in order to enhance their effectiveness in team environments.CoreInternational Marketing Planning 2022-23MKT9705MLevel 72022-23The business world never stands still; technologies and the move towards a more global economy are creating opportunities that organisations must embrace to maintain their competitive edge. Never before have global events and innovations had greater impact on local markets. Businesses now compete on a global stage where marketers can do so much more with small budgets, ultimately shrinking the historic chasm between SMEs and large enterprises. Creative marketing that grabs the attention of the ever demanding changing needs of the consumer takes careful planning. This module can provide students with the fundamental building blocks to manage an organisations marketing function. By establishing an organisations current market position, unpacking their value offering to consumers, and formulating a plan to meet strategic marketing objectives, the marketing planning process provides a creative framework to drive organisational success.CoreLeadership Development 2022-23MGT9707MLevel 72022-23This module is designed to provide students with a conceptual and theoretical background in leadership, and an opportunity to develop leadership competencies in themselves and others. It covers topics such as leadership style, followership, ethical and responsible leadership, gender and leadership, and cross-cultural leadership. Over the course of this module, students will gain an understanding and appreciation of the impact interpersonal skills have on leadership effectiveness. This module has an applied focus and requires students to reflect on and apply theories and techniques to their personal real-world context in order to enhance their leadership practice.CoreManagement of Project and Contract Risk 2022-23BUS9715MLevel 72022-23The implementation of any project is closely associated with risks, resulting from uncertainty within which it runs. Risks can arise during any projects life-cycle phase, both from project executors (internal risks) and external actions (for instance, governmental activities or natural disasters). Risk cannot be eliminated, hence should be managed in the most time- and cost-effective way possible. To this end, a number of project risk management strategies are available, e.g. mitigation or contingency planning. However, the residual risk may still be present and can be dealt with using contracts, in order to transfer, pool or share the identified risks. Contract management is an extremely critical element of the procurement process as it enables a set of contract requirements to be controlled throughout the project as well as a clear allocation of risk to reduce the liability exposure and possibility of disputes, when employing contractors, subcontractors and vendors. The module provides students with the opportunity to explore relevant theory and practice in the areas of project risk, procurement and contract management. The impact of risk on projects and the ways of how that risk might be managed will be examined. Methods of assessment, mitigation and monitoring to manage the project to a successful completion will be proposed and examined. An assumed multi-disciplinary approach, covering risk and legal perspectives, will enable students to construct a framework for improving management action and professional practice in any project environment. In terms of contract law, the module programme aims to introduce the legal issues and risks involved in the negotiation, formation and management of procurement contracts, and elaborates on the available techniques to ensure effective contract risk allocation and protect a project delivery team from unexpected liability claims.CoreOrganisational Psychology 2022-23MGT9639MLevel 72022-23The purpose of this module is to help develop students understanding and management of people at work. This can be achieved by introducing students to key concepts and theories in the field of organisational psychology and their application to different organisational settings. A wide range of topics relevant to effective people management are covered including personality, selection and assessment, work motivation and job design, team dynamics, decision-making, and organisational change and culture. The module will also provide the opportunity for students to reflect on their own experiences and competencies as managers.CoreProfessional Inquiry Project 2022-23BUS9711MLevel 72022-23The Professional Inquiry Project allows students to demonstrate their mastery of management within the field of their degree. It is an individual and independent project in which students can bring together and apply their learning from the programme to help to solve a chosen business problem or challenge, a real-world issue or a research topic. Although the foci and form of the final project are to be negotiated, the following are indicative of the potential formats students may choose: work-based project, client-based project; or other negotiated project such as the design of a new enterprise. Completing the Professional Inquiry Project gives students a unique opportunity to undertake an extended piece of personal research on a topic of their own choosing. By undertaking the project students will be demonstrating their ability to research and critically analyse and integrate complex information necessary in the world of contemporary management.CoreProject Planning and Management 2022-23BUS9041MLevel 72022-23With the rapidly changing context of modern business, the process of introducing novel technologies, products, infrastructures, or systems has become vital yet more challenging due to often conflicting stakeholder requirements, irreversible investments, operating constraints, and associated risks. Therefore, any business change has to be project-managed as the current emphasis in business is on flexible, rapid response to customer demands. Managers increasingly require a project competence with a systems-oriented management style that cuts across traditional functional roles throughout the project life-cycle. Project management is thus considered a crucial management philosophy of how organisations manage fluctuating business environments and bring to life something innovative or simply never accomplished before. This module provides students with the opportunity to develop an essential understanding of the fundamentals of project management. It covers a variety of concepts and their practical application including project scope, time, cost, quality, stakeholders, and communication.CoreStrategy in Context 2022-23MGT9706MLevel 72022-23In our current globalised world, individuals in leadership and management positions within organisations across sectors are often confronted with a myriad of wicked problems which demand for a comprehensive and cohesive strategy. To succeed, individuals in position of responsibility must develop a range of capabilities needed to gain competitive advantage in markets and in the globe. This module seeks to equip students with crucial knowledge and strategy making skills to perform as a strategist and contribute to responsible business strategies to give their organisation a competitive advantage. Students who fully engage with the module will develop the knowledge and professional expertise needed for the formation, implementation and analysis of responsible business strategies; to make appropriate choices between strategic options; and then to follow a strategic route that will deliver results that are robust, ethically sound and socially responsible.CoreProfessional Practice 2022-23TOU9167MLevel 72022-23This course is also available with a Professional Practice pathway. This two-year version of the degree provides the opportunity to undertake a period of professional practice at the end of first year to gain hands-on experience through a paid work placement. Students will be responsible for sourcing their own paid placements but will be supported by academic staff. The professional practice (PP) period is not credit bearing and will not count towards the overall degree; however, to have the PP element attached to the degree, students are required to present a placement project linked to their experience while being in industry (e.g. learning outcomes, key skills developed, nature of the work and responsibilities). The presentation can be delivered face-to-face while the academic placement supervisor is visiting the student/organisation or via Skype if there are limitations (e.g. location). Throughout the PP period, students will be in touch with the University by having regular contact with their allocated supervisor. Students will be expected to complete a negotiated work based project as their dissertation.Optional
