ITE 4710 - Project Management

Credit Hours: 3

Operations and projects differ in that operations are ongoing while projects are temporary. A project, by its very nature, is also unique and requires particular knowledge of how the components combine to form an integrated whole. This course will introduce the student to the field of project management and will present an overview of the body of knowledge necessary for successful project management. The course will focus on the fundamental principles that cross the boundaries of projects and will demonstrate how project management techniques can be applied to a wide variety of disciplines. This course will also introduce the student to computer methods for solving project management problems.
