Answer Hello Valar,
An MBA is a Master of Business Administration. This means that there are core courses you would need to take, and then choose a specialty or focus in Project Managment.
South Africa has a few programs which may be of interest to you:
This is a quote: "True to the pioneering spirit of the 1940’s, the GSM continues to innovate in the field of management education. Today, in addition to the MBA degree, the GSM offers two other masters progammes, ie the Masters Programme in Engineering Management (MEM) and the Masters Programe in Project Management (MPM). Both of these degrees were introduced by by the Department of Engineering and Technology Management in the Faculty of Engineering and since 2000 offered under the auspices of the GSM to the South African market - the Masters Programme in Engineering Management remains the only degree of its kind in the South African market, whereas the Masters Programme in Project Management remains the only degree of its kind at level 8 of the National Qualifications Framework."
