Principles of Project Management 7,5 Credits

Course Contents

Project management has developed to the point where it is a professional discipline having its own body of knowledge and skills. Today it is nearly impossible to imagine anyone at any level in the organization who would not benefit from some degree of expertise in the process of managing projects. The goals for prospective project managers are to understand clearly the role of a project in their organizations and to master project management tools/techniques and inter-personal skills necessary to orchestrate projects to completion.
This course will introduce students to the issues in the management of projects, and impart to them an appreciation of the complexities involved in managing them within the constraints of time, cost and performance. It starts with the basics of project management framework and then will move to its knowledge areas in order to develop the skills for effective planning of projects to deliver products, processes and services on time.
