University of Birmingham to Sponsor Symposium

We are delighted that the University of Birmingham will be a sponsor at the Symposium on the 12th July 2012.

The University offer a MSc in Industrial Project Management. This is a 3-year part-time course offered by The University of Birmingham in conjunction with GlaxoSmithKline (GSK). The course is developed with the continuing professional development (CPD) of practicing project managers in mind.
Course content is industry focused, covering areas such as Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), Construction, Pharmaceuticals and Oil and Gas. Course delivery will be by academic staff alongside experienced industry project managers.

The course covers both the theory and practical application of Project Management principles, practices and tools, demonstrated using real scenarios and exercises. Students will gain both understanding and competence in applying best practice methods and techniques.

The course is modular in structure with nine intensive modules spread over two years (120 credits taught material) and a major project in the third year (60 credits). The first two years are made up of 4-5 taught modules per year. Each module is a mix of theory, practical example and coursework. Each module requires around 3 days of classroom tuition. The third year is a major project on an in-depth industrial project, managed using the principles and tools taught in the earlier two years.
