The MSc in Major Programme Management helps you develop the understanding, ability and confidence to address these challenges and manage programmes the scale of which can transform a company, a city, or even a country.
Designed for experienced project and programme managers, this part-time programme is rigorous, selective and intellectually challenging, and awards a masters degree from the University of Oxford.
Whilst much of your study is completed from home, you will also attend eight modules of four days each in person at Oxford. During these taught modules you’ll benefit from discussion and networking with faculty and peers from many different countries and industries.
Modules:
On completion of the in person Oxford modules, eight summative assessments and a dissertation, you will be equipped with the skills and knowledge to successfully deliver major programmes.
I can quite honestly say that the MSc is one of the best things I have done in my professional career. The ideas generated by collaborating with new colleagues from different industries and different cultures from around the world were invaluable.
What is the MSc in Major Programme Management?
The MSc draws together a truly diverse mix of project and programme managers from many employment sectors and countries.
As a woman in programme management, it can sometimes be difficult to find role models, this programme is a really good opportunity to connect with other women who work in similar environments. Often programme management is seen as a male environment, but actually part of what we learn is the value of our own individual styles.
One of the ways we are showing our support for greater diversity is through scholarships offered to outstanding female candidates, designed to increase the flow of talented women into senior roles in the industry.
Two scholarships will be awarded to candidates in the 2020 intake. These will cover 50% of the total programme fee.
We hold one-to-one meetings and information events around the world, as well as an annual Open Evening here in Oxford. These sessions are a great opportunity to find out more about the MSc.
