The distance learning Equity and Merit scholarship scheme covers the following programmes within 
the IDPM (please note there is a link to the University's online application system on the course webpages but if you are applying for the scholarships please do not submit an application for the programme itself):

MSc Human Resource Management and Development


This is a unique distance learning programme, founded on the key development-oriented tenet that human resources are the most valuable asset that a nation and its constituent organisations possess, and that teaching, learning and research in this area can contribute directly to human and socio-economic development.

MSc Management and Information Systems: Change and Development


This course develops the hybrid mix of management and information systems skills that we know from experience is essential to the successful and strategic application of information and communication technologies by today's organisations.

Designed for participants in developing and transitional economies, this course is suited to both functional managers who wish to take greater control over, and make a more direct contribution to, change in their organisations via the development and implementation of information systems, as well as information systems professionals who wish to improve the success rate of the information systems they develop or use, and who may also wish to upgrade their management skills and knowledge.

These two MSc programme are available through distance learning so that practitioners can study while continuing to work in their ongoing development-related professional roles, in the public, private and civil society sectors, or in roles in international organisations, agencies or NGOs.
