Onshore applicants and Bond University Master of Project Management / Master of Project Management (Professional) / Master of Project Innovation: entry and enrolment points

Both Bond University project management masters accept a recognised Bachelor degree in any field, but not graduates of Bond's own Bachelor of Project Management.

If you are already in Australia and weighing Bond's project management masters, the entry rule is simple: a recognised Bachelor degree in any field. The catch is for Bond's own Bachelor of Project Management graduates, who are directed to the Master of Project Innovation instead. The details below cover both coursework programs, side by side where Bond lists the same item for each.

Who can apply

Both programs ask for a recognised Bachelor degree, or an equivalent qualification, in any field.

Neither program is open to graduates of Bond's Bachelor of Project Management. Bond points those students to the Master of Project Innovation as an alternative.

For applicants with Chinese or Taiwanese qualifications, Bond lists a recognised 4-year Bachelor degree equivalent to an Australian Bachelor degree. This applies to both programs.

English language scores

Both programs list the same two scores:

  • IELTS Academic: overall 6.5, with no sub-score below 6.0.
  • PTE Academic: overall 58, with no Communicative Score below 50.

Bond also accepts TOEFL iBT for both programs.
