The Master of Project Management (Professional) program provides a comprehensive business-ready foundation that will equip students from any background with the knowledge required to develop a career and expertise in project management. The Master of Project Management (Professional) features four distinct study themes including strategy, sustainability, managing complex problems and teams, and virtual teams and global working. The curriculum addresses a range of topics including conflict resolution, effective integrated planning, management, market performance, portfolio management, public and private sector investment and risk identification. External speakers from leading investment banks, credit agencies and portfolio fund managers contribute to case studies and workshops.

This subject is strongly experientially oriented and encourages students to develop their professional skills in a real world environment. The subject ensures that students combine self-analysis and reflective learning skills with business and professional methodologies, so as to expand analytic and strategic thinking capabilities. It provides practical experience for students to develop their skills in a profession relevant to their Masters specialisation. All students are required to complete a 2,000 word scoping document, and undertake either a work placement in Australia for 210 hours (which includes an employer's report and a reflective journal) or alternative on-campus project (PM-BOT) or research-related fieldwork (which includes evidence collection, critical reflection and implications for industry), plus a final professional portfolio collection of documents highlighting their practical and theoretical experiences in their profession of choice. The Professional Portfolio subject cannot be commenced until the student has successfully completed all coursework subjects of the Masters component of the degree. The Professional Portfolio is a 20 week, 45 credit point subject.
