Notes to the course
Subject(s) Bachelor Programs
The course will be held on-site at WU!
The course introduces students to contemporary Project Management. Students learn basic concepts and principles of Project Management and social competencies as basis for Project Leadership. The course covers project management methods such as project objectives plan, work break down structure, project scheduling, project stakeholder management, project organisation and roles. Students apply these methods and concepts on their training projects. We also look into agility and agile teams in projects and reflect agile, hybrid and traditional project approaches. This interactive course is both, theoretically based and hands on. By that it allows insights into the Project Management practice and enables students to reflect benefits and limits of project management. The course enables students to manage small to medium projects on their own.
