This Project Management degree course also has the option of a 12-month industry placement. A project management industrial placement will give you the opportunity to develop your knowledge and skills in a real-world environment, while completing an applied research project. This will give you an advantage over the competition for jobs and scholarships after you graduate and could be a good starting point for setting up your own consultancy business.
Your placement will need to be appropriate to your level of study and you should be paid for this work. We will support you in securing a suitable placement opportunity, however, it must be noted that placements are highly competitive and there’s no guarantee of a placement offer being made by an employer. If you’re unable or unwilling to progress with an industry placement, you will have the option to transfer onto our Dissertation and Research Methods module to gain the required credits to complete your programme of study.
You will have the opportunity to gain additional, highly-regarded professional qualifications in PRINCE2 Foundation, PRINCE2 Practitioner and Agile Project Management Foundation.
This Project Management course will support your career progression by developing your critical thinking and research skills to enhance your business knowledge and understanding.
