Learn more about what professional project management is, why companies are investing in it, and how you can grow your career.

About the Event

Northeastern University in Arlington is pleased to host a Taster Lecture with the College of Professional Studies focusing on our Masters of Science in Project Management.

In this class, you will have the opportunity to hear a brief overview of the discipline, why it matters, and where it is growing. You will also learn how the College of Professional Studies offers an accessible but effective degree to give students the skills they need to join this growing revolution.

After a presentation in the main room, attendees will be able to learn more about specific areas of project management in small group conversations with Northeastern faculty members in breakout rooms. Enrollment counselors and academic advisors will be available in the main room to answer questions about applying and getting started in the program.
