Ever contemplated studying Project Management and questioned if it was for you? Well here is why you should study project management today!

The first thing that comes to mind is what does “Project” mean?

A Project is any prepared set of interrelated duties to be performed over a fixed duration and within specific cost. Other limitations would include the construction of software for an enhanced business process, the construction of a building or bridge, the maintenance effort after a natural disaster, the development of sales into a new geographic market — all are projects.

The project management course will equip the student with the necessary skills that are required to run any project from an idea right up to the implementation.  The course is an introductory, yet comprehensive course in overseeing a wide range of projects and the processes needed not to merely survive but to prosper in a fast pasted business environment.
