Whether you are a graduate with a non-technical background or a graduate with a technical background, our conversion programme, “MSc Agile Software Project Management,” is right for you.
Project managers plan, schedule, budget, execute, and deliver software and web projects. A software project manager ensures that all software projects are completed successfully. It is the responsibility of a software project manager to coordinate software projects from the beginning to the end. Basically, it means managing and motivating project staff, preparing presentations for customers, and preparing proposals for projects.
Software development projects are typically complex and multifaceted. Managing software development projects efficiently is therefore crucial to meeting deadlines and budgets. Therefore, in the IT industry, project managers are in high demand due to their expertise in developing software solutions and executing multifaceted projects for a variety of clients.

Bank accounts are usually opened with the following documents:
A passport or driver’s license should be one of the forms of identification
Address proof, such as a utility bill or bank statement
Proof of student status, such as an acceptance letter from your higher education institute or an offer letter from UCAS.
Online applications for student bank accounts are now available from most banks, but you must still mail or bring supporting documents to your local branch. Photocopies are not acceptable, only originals.

How much does it cost to live there?
Student spending averages £924 per month according to Save the Student’s National Student Money Survey 2022.
It is likely that this amount will have already increased by the time you begin your course. Bringing a family will also add expenses to your budget.
Do I have the option of working to cover my living expenses?
If you are an international student, you cannot work while studying. This is an intense programme and your coursework will need your full attention and time during the year-long programme.
