Entry Requirements

  • To have at least 3 years of experience working in a project environment.  To get the best out of this course you need to be able to relate your academic learning and research to the real-life of projects. 
  • If you are not currently working in a project-related environment, please ensure your personal statement discusses how you will be able to relate your studies to the real life of projects, and how you will network with other project professionals as part of your learning.
  • On very rare occasions we will consider applicants with less experience or no current project position, but the applicant will need to make a strong case in their Personal Statement, and at any subsequent interview.
  • Your references should be professional rather than academic, coming from someone who has worked with you – ideally in a project environment.  We require at least one, ideally two.  If you are a non-native English speaker, the reference should (where applicable) refer to how much you worked in English, and how well you did so.
  • A good academic standard of education.  A good first degree is ideal, though we will consider applicants without a degree where they can demonstrate work experience at a reasonable senior level.
  • Applicants without a first degree, or with little work experience will be considered, but will be required to attend a video interview as part of their application process.
