1-Semester Pathway - Pre-Masters in Business, Finance and Management - Continue to Master of Science - Project Management

A postgraduate pathway is a single course comprising two stages of study; Pre-Master’s and Master’s. When students successfully complete the full pathway they will be awarded a Master’s degree from ARU. The Pre-Master’s pathway will prepare learners for future postgraduate studies by giving them confidence and expertise in areas relevant to their taught Master’s degree.

The Pre-Master’s course is Stage 1 of the postgraduate pathway, and is one semester in duration. It has been designed to prepare students who have not qualified for direct entry to ARU’s Master’s degrees, for postgraduate level studies. Undertaking a Pre-Master’s course will provide students with the time to adjust to the rigorous research and independent study requirements of postgraduate studies and prepare them to get the most out of their postgraduate study at ARU. The Master’s (Stage 2) offers students the chance to build on what they have learned during the Pre-Master’s and extend their professional understanding about their relevant area of study.

Many courses are accredited by professional bodies and all are developed in close collaboration with industry and with emerging technologies in mind. In the MSc Project Management students will develop the professional expertise needed to plan, develop, manage and deliver complex projects. Applicable to any industry, the course is Association for Project Management (APM) accredited. There is an increasing demand, both nationally and internationally, for professionally trained project managers and the course is designed for graduates and professionals who wish to enter a career, or further their existing career in project management.
