The demand for project managers is increasingly vital to many areas of business today. At UNVA, we train project managers to have an eye for detail and show them how to create highly organized and elegant project plans; our courses give students the organizational methods as well as the confidence and skill to efficiently manage difficult projects from start to finish. With a Project Management MBA, you will acquire the skills, knowledge, and confidence to successfully manage projects of all sizes in difficult business environments.

A well-trained project manager must have a broad understanding that crosses over many business fields. As a Project Management MBA student at UNVA, you will cover a wide range of special areas as part of your program. Our students do in-depth studies of many topics such as project planning, risk management, project procurement, organizational skills, business communications, business strategy, and business leadership skills.

Companies are willing to pay for the expertise they need, and they currently need professionals who are strategic thinkers, managers who are highly trained in business and can analyze and understand financial statements. Companies need managers who are able to manage people across cultures, and who are equipped with project management tools?and this is what you will get from a Project Management MBA.

We based our MBA in Project Management program on the core concepts developed by the Project Management Institute (PMI)®, which is the world's leading organization for the project management profession. At the end of our program, you will not only receive your Master of Business Administration in Project Management, but you also have the opportunity to receive Project Management Professional certification from the Project Management Institute.

Since we at UNVA Prague have a close relationship with the business world, we understand the value of creating a productive environment where many projects can be managed together, especially software projects. That is why we are partnered with the Scrum Alliance organization to equip our students with project management tools. Scrum has become the most popular method in the world of agile software development, and project managers are trained in these techniques and methods. We have also prepared elective courses for those who are willing to add the Project In Controlled Environment 2 (Prince2) framework to their project management training.
