Descrizione
Why do so many projects fail? Why do so many others fail to produce lasting results? Why do so many projects suffer from cost and time overruns? How can firms identify and design high-leverage policies to improve project performance? In this course, we will cover three important aspects of project management:
- The theory, methods, and quantitative tools used to effectively plan, organize, and control projects;
- Techniques for managing projects more effectively revealed through practice and research; and
- Hands-on, practical project management knowledge from optimization and simulation exercises.
Obiettivi

- Be able to apply Project Management methods and tools in practice, understanding their limitations; and
- Learn from each other through class discussions and small group assignments.
