Project Management

(3 Credit Hours) · Undergraduate

In today's competitive landscape, successful project execution is not merely a tactical function—it is a critical driver of business strategy and ROI. Despite this, industry reports confirm a persistent high rate of project failure, highlighting a glaring leadership skills gap in organizations globally. This course is designed for future leaders who drive strategic initiatives from conception to value realization. We provide a comprehensive mastery of the frameworks, concepts, and tools required to successfully deliver tangible business value through projects. Our curriculum is guided by the Project Management Institute's (PMI) Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK), offering a deep dive into the governance and definitions necessary to manage complex deliverables. This foundational knowledge positions you to begin preparing for Project Management Professional (PMP) certification. Furthermore, to ensure market readiness, the course integrates essential knowledge of popular and highly effective Agile methodologies, including Scrum and Kanban. To address the reality that projects often fail due to people-related issues, we discuss Change Management, or mastering the people side of organizational transformation. We will also demonstrate how to use AI to manage projects more effectively. The ultimate objective of this class is to equip you to consistently deliver the right solution, executed with precision (on time and on budget), that is fully adopted by your customers to ensure maximum business value. This class is your path to becoming a successful executive who drives strategic success.
