Opleiding: MSc Engineering Project Management
Learning purpose
Middlesex University is the only institution in London to offer a postgraduate degree in engineering project management. The MSc Engineering Project Management meets a specific skills gap in industry for engineers with project management skills who can lead on engineering projects in any sector. The Engineering Project Mangement masters will give you a fundamental understanding of advances in engineering and expand your knowledge of management.
Programme
A project manager not only helps to reduce costs, but gives a project flexibility, and can assist with access to new technologies and developments. The MSc Engineering Project Management is for graduates with some industrial understanding that wish to move into project management within the engineering industry.The course provides the latest experiences of current best practice with regard to human, financial and Total Quality Management (TQM) of an engineering enterprise.
You will be assessed through a combination of coursework, presentations, a project and unseen examinations.
- Engineering Innovation (30 Credits) - Compulsory
- To understand the process of innovation in an engineering context and be able to appreciate the way it impacts the management of an engineering enterprise.
- Engineering Project Management (30 Credits) - Compulsory
- To be able to apply project management techniques to achieve quality engineering solutions using human and financial resources in a given time frame
- Engineering Simulation (30 Credits) - Compulsory
- This module will enable students to understand the scientific methods underlying the modelling of real systems. It will further expand their understanding of a range of sophisticated mathematical techniques and simulation methods using the examples facilitated by engineering systems. Case studies will be used to illustrate how models can be validated against real measurements. Assessment procedures are designed to enable students to deliver academically significant modelling performances.
- Human and Financial Management in Engineering (30 Credits) - Compulsory
- To be able to apply management techniques as tools to achieve engineering solutions using human and financial resources
