Master of Business Administration/Master of Project Management

About

Businesses need strategic thinkers and effective project managers.

In the gig economy of the 21st century, ‘management by projects’ is becoming the norm. In every industry, tasks are delivered by interdisciplinary teams headed by leaders who not only have expertise in their given field but a suite of people management, time management, design thinking and high-level communication skills.

At the senior levels of management, career advancement depends on being ready, willing and able to head up project teams. Which is exactly why a postgraduate qualification in project management is the ideal extension to supercharge your MBA studies.

Bond University’s double MBA and Master of Project Management will equip you with the skills to progress to senior leadership roles and board positions.

Future-proof your career with Bond’s Master of Project Management, designed to deliver a particular attribute that equips you with capabilities that are likely to be enduring and valued. You will graduate with confidence after developing attractive, employability attributes.

While project management is a broad discipline, graduates may choose to specialise in the construction industry. A second qualification can be attractive to prospective employers or clients. Multidisciplinary skills enable greater empathy and communication with project team members from diverse backgrounds.
