A Program for Modern Project Management
As businesses search for ways to do more with less, project managers must bring ever-greater efficiency to increasingly complex portfolios.
The 30-credit Stevens master's degree in Enterprise Project Management emphasizes a strategic perspective that’s crucial to modern project management. This is a program for the technical professional eager to advance in the organization by directing people, budgets and projects toward completion. Curricular themes in strategic perspectives, project planning and cross-project leadership ensure graduates can direct complex, enterprise-level initiatives. Classes include significant analytical components that will challenge you to think quantitatively about challenges in management.
This program is accredited by the Project Management Institute, the leading organization in project management. Classes taken through Stevens can be applied to Project Management Professional certification or certification maintenance.
Capstone Experience
No graduate business education is complete without an opportunity to apply what you've learned on a project of consequence. At Stevens, that takes many forms — a consulting assignment with an industry partner, a research project that addresses an industry need, even the chance to nurture your own entrepreneurial venture — and is customized for you, your education and your career aspirations.
Admission Criteria
- Academic Transcripts: Your application must include official transcripts from all universities you have attended. These records must show your name, the name of the university attended, enrollment dates, coursework completed, and grades assigned.
- Professional Resume: Work experience is not a requirement for the Enterprise Project Management master's program, however, most candidates do have at least two years of corporate experience. The admissions committee carefully considers applicants' professional experience and how it can help enhance classroom discussions. You must include a résumé with your application that highlights:
- Academic record.
- Work and internship experience.
- Leadership abilities.
- Professional aspirations.
- Interviews: Stevens often invites master's candidates to interview prior to making an admissions decision. If you are selected for an interview after submitting your application, you will receive instructions via email.
- Letters of Recommendation: Your application must include two letters of recommendation. The strongest applications will include one letter from a current supervisor, and one from a former supervisor or previous employer who can speak to your leadership potential and discuss your professional performance.
