Project Management

Catalog description

Project Management (3) Effective project management skills are required for managers, executives, and consultants as a great deal of work in organizations is initiated and delivered through projects. Due to the increasing complexity of business and technology environments, it is challenging for managers to complete mission-critical projects on time and within budget while satisfying project stakeholders. This course educates students to become competent project managers. In the course students learn about the industry-standard Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) including important project management concepts, frameworks, principles, methodologies, techniques, and tools through interactive, engaged, and experiential learning processes. The course also prepares students to pursue the Project Management Professional (PMP) certification by aligning course content with PMP exam domains and best practices recognized by the Project Management Institute.
