Course Description:

Introduction to project management. Project life cycle management overview (initiation, planning, execution, monitoring and control, and closure). Basic project management concepts, approaches, methods, tools and techniques. Topics covered include: identifying project needs and objectives; aligning projects with organizational strategy; managing stakeholder expectations; writing the project charter and the project plan; delivering projects; monitoring and control; understanding and measuring project success, delivering long-term and sustainable impacts.

Built upon the Project Management Institute's (PMI) Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide), this course offers a comprehensive grasp of the project management field. Students will explore project management process groups and systematic approaches (predictive, agile, and hybrid) throughout the course. The course extends beyond foundational principles, providing insights into strategic project selection. This empowers students to assess and select projects harmonizing with their organizations' objectives.
Central to the course is its emphasis on hands-on learning. This equips students with the aptitude to strategize and execute projects, surpassing organizational performance targets effectively. Practical skills and adept problem-solving capabilities are honed through real-world case studies, translating theoretical understanding into pragmatic application.
