Degree Requirements

The Master of Science in Project Management degree is earned upon the successful completion of 30-36 graduate credits. Knowing that many adult students can’t enroll full-time, we allow students to take up to seven years from the date of admission to complete all of the degree requirements.
The curriculum is aligned with the knowledge and process areas of the Guide to Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide), which forms the foundation needed to obtain the Project Management Professional (PMP®) designation.
