Project Planning

3 Credits · Level: Graduate

This course provides an in-depth look at project planning by defining what effective project planning consists of, including setting out the project roadmap and creating the following plans: project plan, resource plan, financial plan, quality plan, acceptance plan, risk management plan, and communications plan. Students learn how to construct a detailed project plan while examining case studies that teach them the essentials of project planning—including that successful project planning must be detailed and organized, and requires full team participation. In applications, plans and priorities always change with the evolving business environment, so students also learn the importance of adaptability in project planning.
