MASTER OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT


PREPARATION FOR PROJECT MANAGEMENT CERTIFICATE

Anderson's Master's in Project Management (MSPM) is a 30-hour program that you
can complete online or on campus. The Master of Science program is designed for
students interested in advanced-career technical or managerial roles in project
controls, project management and program management in the private or public
sector.

During the program, you have the opportunity to apply for a paid student
internship with Los Alamos or Sandia National Labs.

Courses count for credit as formal education through the Project Management
Institute, and you can apply them toward the Project Management Professional
(PMP) Certification offered through the Project Management Institute (PMI). This
way, you are getting both the experience required for PMP certification and
earning your master's degree.
