This degree apprenticeship is designed for professionals looking to bridge the gap between academic theory and high-level project management practice. Delivered through a blended learning model, the programme allows you to remain in full-time employment while completing your degree, ensuring that every module translates directly into workplace impact. Whether you are managing small-scale operational tasks or leading complex, multi-functional projects, this course provides the technical and human-centric skills required to thrive in sectors ranging from IT and engineering to healthcare and transport.

You will engage with a diverse curriculum that covers everything from financial management and marketing to advanced project governance and quality assurance. A distinctive feature of the programme is the integration of academic study with your professional life; you will have monthly one-to-one sessions with an academic supervisor to help you apply new concepts to your current role. The learning experience is supported by a virtual learning environment (Blackboard) and enriched by bi-monthly webinars, complemented by two-day in-person sessions on the Birmingham campus once per term to foster networking and professional development.

Integrated Professional Development

The programme culminates in a final, work-based project that serves as your end-point assessment, demonstrating your ability to lead, influence, and deliver strategic value for your employer. By the end of the three-year journey, you will have not only earned a BSc (Hons) in Project Management but also solidified your expertise through years of practical, industry-tested experience.
