Project managers are increasingly in demand. Every industry has the need for project managers and employers seek qualified project management specialists. The Project Management degree will lead to positions in operations management, supply chain management or to work as project managers. This might be an IT project, a construction project, or anything in between. A project manager must manage tasks throughout the project—from conception to completion. Tasks may include defining goals, creating, and maintaining schedules, establishing and monitoring budgets, delegating tasks to other team members, monitoring project process, and wrapping tasks up on time.

This Project Management course covers a range of project and application areas to showcase the most effective methods of project initiation, planning, execution, and close-out. Throughout the course of this Project Management degree, you will learn world-wide best practices together with how effective and efficient management of projects contribute to organizational success.
