تفاصيل الدورة

Course Overview

Strategic Project Management at Heriot-Watt University differentiates itself from other project management programmes by providing greater emphasis on the strategic requirement in managing a portfolio of projects to deliver organisational goals.

In this way, Strategic Project Management encompasses both project management as a process to deliver end products and change management as a process of capturing the rational and emotional buy-in of the people affected by change to ensure its success.

A postgraduate qualification in Strategic Project Management would benefit those whether in business, engineering, IT or science whose job involves managing or directing work that has a strategic focus and a defined end goal.

This programme reflects the content of both:

The Project Management Institute’s Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge
The Association of Project Management’s Project Management Body of Knowledge

Full-time students will study four key themes, which are:

• Strategy and Governance
• Project Control Systems
• Commercial Project Management

• Strategic Project Management
• Competitive Strategy

• Business Research Methods

• Project Procurement and Contract Management
• Business Models: Themes and Issues
• Project Finance, Accounting and Control

In addition to these taught courses, students pursuing the Masters qualification undertake a dissertation/research project.
