Please note that admission to the Microprogram in Complex Project and Procurement Leadership is suspended until further notice.
This microprogram will be of interest to candidates who would like to learn more about the management of complex projects and procurement initiatives. The microprogram focuses on the fundamentals: systems thinking that enables an appreciation of how to work with multiple stakeholders, launching a project that might be of long duration and/or of significant size and scope, and cost estimation and negotiation across a complex landscape.
The microprogram can be pursued as a stand-alone learning experience or as a stepping stone to the Diploma in Complex Projects or the Executive MBA (EMBA) with concentration in Complex Projects. Students applying to the Diploma or to the EMBA must meet the admission requirements of those programs.
