PGCert in Programme court de troisième cycle en management de projets

This short doctoral-level certificate (programme court de troisieme cycle) in project management at Universite du Quebec a Chicoutimi is an 18-credit program delivered by synchronous distance learning, with admission in the fall and winter terms. It trains practitioners to contribute to the development of project-management knowledge, its transfer, and its application within organizational settings, extending study beyond the master's level toward research-oriented practice. Admission under the standard route requires holding a master's degree in project management with a cumulative average of at least 3.2 on 4.3, a complete application file, strong command of French, and sufficient functional knowledge of English. Candidates who completed their qualifying degree outside Quebec may be admitted under a separate route, requiring an appropriate project-management diploma obtained after at least eighteen years of schooling with a minimum average of 14 on 20. The program suits practicing project managers holding a relevant master's degree who want to deepen their expertise in project-management research and application without committing to a full doctorate.
