Program Overview

This master level short course allows you to critically assess, within a problem-solving environment, the processes and strategies undertaken by project managers to define, plan control, and deliver functional projects

One of the main characteristics of project management is that it deals with unique and novel activities which are tailored towards specific end-items. These activities need to be identified, defined, and described in terms of resource requirements, time boundaries and cost allowances. They also need to be linked to each other and to other activities within the organisation. Project planning and control support the achievement of this. The processes enable people to understand what is needed to meet project goals and it reduces the uncertainty of the outcomes.
