About The Program

Project Management is one of the key areas that require maximum attention from the management. The non-repetitive, irreversible nature of activities and huge capital investment make the knowledge of scientific and advanced skills mandatory for proper management of projects. The number of tasks and their interrelationship is very complex even in the case of a small project and the use of computer is proving mandatory for success.

The program in Project Management looks at various facets of managing complex projects and illustrates how good project management software can be used effectively for managing large projects. The program also will have special emphasis on the complex task of managing software (IT) projects. Usage of standard models for IT project management will be discussed in detail.
