Program Overview As the logistical complexity and technical requirements of today's projects evolve in sophistication, 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 Master of Science in Project Management (MSPM) program 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 and 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 MSPM 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 Requirements: Students must complete the eight MSM core courses in addition to the four Project Management specialization courses. Students who have earned the Boston University Online Graduate Certificate in Project Management may transfer their credits directly to the MSPM, earning the master's degree by completing just the eight core MSPM courses.
