=EuroMPM2 - the second level of the European Master in Project Management=

History and Strategy

 * The European Master in Project Management is a study programme implemented at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts in Dortmund and embedded in the consortium of European universities with the University of the Basque Country in Bilbao and NTNU in Trondheim. Exchange of staff and students shapes the programme.


 * The international cooperation will be further developed - similar programmes were implemented in Latvia for example, supported by EuroMPM staff. Bridges to these programmes and further programmes will be improved.


 * The EuroMPM in Dortmund started as a full-time study programme with 4 semesters in 2 years in 2006 and will be continued. For the future the EuroMPM must be open for additional types of study course, for example 3 semester programmes that are needed when bachelor programmes will be expanded to 7 semesters. Such a study programme will be prepared in 2012 and will be embedded in a cluster of combined master programmes at the faculty of Business Administration.


 * The development of competences in international project management is the core focus of the EuroMPM - with core modules in the first 2 semesters, a specialization in the 3rd semester, and a master thesis in the 4th semester.

 * EuroMPM2 offers additional specializations, in Dortmund we offer now 4 specializations in the 3rd semester in total: 1. IT projects 2. E-commerce projects 3. Logistics projects 4. Global Business Management projects.
 * EuroMPM2 students can select a specialization in the 3rd semester at a foreign partner university - a specialization in project and quality management in Bilbao, or a specialization in strategic project management in Trondheim. Such a specialization at a foreign university will be supported - but is not mandatory.
 * The specializations in Dortmund are developed with a special focus on international project management and are shaped by joint actions with foreign universities.


 * EuroMPM2 strictly follows the European Qualification Framework for master programmes.


 * The study programme follows international standards (IPMA, PMI, OGC, ISO, etc.).


 * The study programme has strong links to companies and associations - case studies and projects linked to companies and associations shape the programme.

 * Research contributions in international project management are developed in the study programme and are presented at international conferences since years.


 * Course language is English.
