Development theory, programme design, monitoring and evaluation, grant management and the governance of NGOs — for practitioners in the aid and third sector.
ESCP Business School teaches this award to one academic standard whether you study on campus in Warsaw or on the tuition-free online pathway. Assessment is identity-checked; the marking scheme does not change with your postcode. This is an academic Master's award; where a field has a licensing or registration route, that remains a matter for your professional body or regulator.
You will work through the material as a practitioner-researcher: applied methods, real or anonymised cases, and a supervised capstone or dissertation as the final component. Faculty mark whether you noticed the constraints a slide deck usually hides.
MA International Development & NGO Management is taught as one award, not a list of unrelated modules. The published length is 24 months, and the credit total is 36. Students move from Development Theory & Political Economy through Development Theory & Political Economy; Poverty, Inequality & Social Protection; Ethics, Safeguarding & Do-No-Harm; Programme & Project Cycle Management; Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning Systems; Grant, Budget & Compliance Management, and finish on Development Capstone Project.
Each course has a question, a method, and a submission. In this field, students diagnose one organisation and carry a decision through to a recommendation. Reading is a case, a short financial extract, and a stakeholder note. The artefact a marker expects is a consulting brief a manager could use.
The award is built so that a graduate can do the following in practice: Design and manage a development programme through the full cycle Build a monitoring, evaluation and learning system that is actually used Manage grants, budgets, procurement and compliance
Teaching assumes the student can read a source, attempt a problem before the seminar, and revise after feedback. Attendance at live seminars is part of the design. The capstone or final course must use the methods of the earlier courses; a project that ignores them does not pass.
The pages for each course name the topics that are examined. Those topics are the syllabus. A brochure line is not a substitute for them.
The programme carries 36 credits across four assessed modules. Delivery is tuition-free (0) on the online pathway. Transcripts use letter grades and a GPA scale consistent with ESCP Business School awards. No professional-body logo is used in marketing to imply endorsement.
