MPM Degree

The MPM Degree Program is a two-year program designed for project management professionals with a minimum of two years’ work experience.

Minimum Admissions Requirements

  • An undergraduate degree from a regionally accredited institution of higher education, with a 3.0 average on the last 60 credit hours.
  • A minimum GMAT (or a GRE equivalent) score of 400 is required; higher scores improve the chance of admission. This requirement is waived if the applicant holds a masters degree from an accredited institution.
  • Relevant work experience and a recommendation from a current or past employer.
  • A goal statement that includes the program to which you are applying, your professional goals and aspirations, your motivation for applying to the program, and any relevant formal or informal experiences.
  • Additional documents include a letter of recommendation from your employer, and a resume. You must have experience in project management.

Prerequisites

At the time of the admission decision the program director will evaluate the need for prerequisite courses needed by students with little experience in project management in order to provide an adequate background for the MPM Program.

Application Deadline

You can begin the program in January or August. The earlier you can get your application to us, the greater the chance of reserving a place in the program.
