The Graduate Certificate in Project Management is designed to accommodate professionals with various levels of project management experience. Project management principles apply to both manufacturing and service industries including professionals in fields such as software engineering, construction management, and financial services.
For the 2025–2026 academic year, the Graduate Certificate in Project Management is being offered as a collaboration between the College of Professional Studies and the Office of the Provost. During this period, students will follow Northeastern University’s Graduate Academic Calendar and be governed by the academic policies and procedures documented in the university’s Graduate Catalog.
During the time a student is designated under the Office of the Provost, the College of Professional Studies will provide each student with full academic and student support services (e.g., academic advising services, co-op and career advising services, International Tutoring Center, etc.).
Beginning in the 2026–2027 academic year, students enrolled in this graduate certificate program will transition to the College of Professional Studies, and their official college designation will be updated accordingly in the academic system of record. At that time, students will be governed by the academic policies and procedures documented in the university’s Graduate Catalog, specifically relating to the College of Professional Studies.
