READING, PA / AGILITYPR.NEWS / July 01, 2026 / Albright College announces the launch of a Bachelor of Science in Project Management within its School of Professional Studies (SPS), offering working adults a structured pathway into one of the most in-demand skill areas across today’s project-driven economy.

Across industries, from healthcare and technology to construction and finance, the ability to plan, coordinate, and deliver complex initiatives has become a core organizational competency. Employers are actively seeking professionals who can lead projects with confidence, manage resources effectively, and drive results in environments defined by change and competing priorities.

The B.S. in Project Management prepares students to do exactly that. The program takes students through coursework in project planning, scheduling, analytics, operations, technology, and business strategy. Students develop the skills needed to manage resources, solve problems, and deliver successful outcomes, whether supporting or leading a project team. Graduates are prepared to contribute across a wide range of industries and to pursue careers in project management and related fields.

As with all SPS programs, the degree is delivered fully online and designed around the realities of working adult life. Courses are offered in accelerated, flexible formats, and students work with advisors to build a degree plan that fits their schedule and leverages their existing experience. At $300 per credit, the program offers an affordable path to a career-relevant degree. Students with relevant professional backgrounds may also apply for prior learning credit, allowing them to convert work experience, certifications, and industry training into academic credit and reach the finish line faster.

“Project management is not just a job title; it is a way of thinking that every organization needs. This program gives working adults the frameworks, tools, and confidence to lead initiatives that move organizations forward. We designed it for people who are already doing the work and are ready to do it with greater impact.” President Debra M. Townsley, Ph.D., said.
