MBA in Project Management and Control

Business School Netherlands

The MBA in Project Management and Control provides you with knowledge and skills of all fields of management. All these management fields are important in successful project management and control, and hence the emphasis is placed on what role the specific management field plays in large projects. Because Action Learning is applied, you will learn from what you apply and build in your organisation and you will see tangible results emerge, during your studies.

The programme is divided into three phases:

During the first phase, you will learn via our excellent distance learning environment. You will gain an in-depth understanding of Action Learning and analyse your own organisation.

In the second phase of the programme, you will visit the Dutch campuses of BSN and ARAM Academy three times for 10 days of workshops. These workshops cover all management fields. In addition, you will learn from the state of the art masterclasses covering all important project management and control fields. Simultaneously, you will complete 4 Action Learning Projects that are applied to your own organisation.

In the third and final phase, you will write your Dissertation that will contribute to forming the strategy of your organisation. The MBA programme workload is expected to be approximately 12 hours a week.
