PMP-CER - Project Management for the Professional Certificate, M.P.S.

TTU’s online Project Management for the Professional Concentration and Certificate prepares students to meet the growing demands for project management with courses grounded in the methodologies, strategies, skills, and tactics critical for success. The program accepts students from a variety of backgrounds providing professionals the opportunity to transition from one career to another. The program does not require a calculus background.

The courses are 7-weeks long and can be taken completely online. The program can be taken as part of the Master of Professionals Studies degree (30 hours) or as a 12-hour graduate certificate or as a non-degree seeking student. 

The program uses the Project Management Body of Knowledge Manual but is not accredited through PMI; consequently, TTU can explore other schools of thought. Students completing the program receive training from PMI certified instructors as well as 20+ year veterans of industry.

Students seeking a Graduate Certificate will go through the graduate application process as if they were seeking an MPS degree, meeting all admissions requirements as set forth in the degree program. Once admitted, students are considered MPS degree seeking students and will be working towards completing the pre-defined coursework (12 hours) as listed in this catalog. Upon completion of the 12 hours defined in the program, the student will receive a Graduate Certificate in the appropriate field of study. After completion of the 12-hour Graduate Certificate, the student may continue to fulfill the requirements of the MPS degree. Students are required to meet all graduate student requirements that include maintaining their GPA at the 3.0 level.

The certificate is a 12-credit hour program.
