BSc in Project Management — Bachelor at London School of International Business and Management

BSc in Project Management


Course Overview

The BSc in Project Management at the London School of International Business and Management (LSIBM) is a three-year UK honours degree for candidates targeting a delivery career at a UK consultancy, bank, tech scale-up or public-sector programme. Sitting in the Business & Management faculty, this degree combines core project-management theory with programme delivery, agile hybrid delivery, benefits realisation and applied research on UK live deliveries.

Students undertake a placement year at a UK delivery employer, run a year-two live-brief programme case study, and complete a final-year dissertation on a delivery-management question defended in front of a working programme director. The BSc is available on-campus in central London, fully online with cohort calls scheduled across UK and APAC time zones, and by distance learning.

  • Earned value management — CV, SV, CPI, SPI, estimate to complete.
  • Risk management — qualitative and quantitative, Monte Carlo introduction.

Career Pathways
