Discover the Keller Advantage in Project Management
Keller's Master of Project Management (MPM) degree program has been awarded accreditation by the Project Management Institute's Global Accreditation Center (GAC), the world's leading association for project management professionals. DeVry University and its Keller Graduate School of Management join a selected group of only 13 U.S. universities and 21 schools internationally to be granted this designation.
For students seeking a career-oriented Project Management degree program—including an online learning option—that can be customized to your professional needs and interests, Keller will give you the advantage. Here's why:
Prestigious PMI curriculum. The Global Accreditation Center (GAC) distinction confirms Keller's MPM curriculum meets PMI's rigorous standards, which includes an assessment of the program's objectives and outcomes, faculty and student evaluations, onsite and online resources and proof of continuous improvements in the area of project management.
GAC Accreditation benefit. The GAC accreditation allows students to accelerate their path to achieving their professional project management credentials. As a GAC-accredited program, Keller's Master in Project Management curriculum provides opportunities for ongoing professional development. MPM graduates will earn 1,500 hours of project management experience that can be applied toward the requirements to take PMI's Project Management Professional (PMP®) Credential examination. A total of 4,500 hours are required for all applicants; if an applicant graduates from a GAC-accredited program, only 3,000 hours of work experience is then needed.
