University of the Cumberalnds' master’s in project management is a graduate degree program intended for working professionals who have earned their undergraduate degree in business or another relevant field and are looking for the education — and credentials — to lead complex projects in their respective careers.

With an MSPM degree, you’ll be fully equipped with the skills needed to serve in a variety of project management and leadership roles. You may also consider a career as a logistician, improving product distribution challenges, increasing efficiency, and improving the processes of your company. According to data from the U.S. Department of Labor, project management specialist and information technology project manager career paths should grow faster than average over the next decade! 

While becoming a PMP may be a worthy investment in your career, it's important to note that it is not the equivalent of earning an MSPM. Why? Because a PMP certifies your existing knowledge and skills, while an MSPM program is designed to offer a comprehensive education in the theory and practice of project management. 

If you’re a professional who already has the requisite education and work experience, earning PMP certification could help boost your career prospects. But if you’re hoping to build new skills in project management, deepen your knowledge in preparation for advanced career opportunities, or make a career pivot, earning an MSPM may be the ideal next step. And many project managers earn both!

For many, the answer is yes. Consider the following potential advantages of earning your MSPM: Roles that call for project management skills may come with a bigger salary, you’ll learn in-demand leadership and management skills you can apply in diverse industries and organizations, and earning an MSPM can give you the career boost you need to move into a project manager role.
