Engineering Project Management

Overview

Projects are a key way to create value and benefits in contemporary organizations that work in a complex business environment. In engineering, project management manages all aspects of a project, from teams to tasks and tools. Without it, you're relegating your project to chance or chaos, neither of which is ideal. But when you engage in it, some specific processes and practices must take place to succeed.

This course is designed to provide all learners from different engineering backgrounds with the necessary knowledge of project management to promote their ideas about engineering practice and escalate their qualities in engineering management. Firstly, you will have a comprehensive overview of engineering, engineering management, and engineering project management. Then, you will learn about the project management framework and the most dominant approaches, focusing on the PMI approach and deep-diving into the PMBOK guide.

Then, you learn how to bring engineering project management to action by tackling the key tasks and responsibilities the engineering project manager should hold to attain project success. Ultimately, you will learn how to define the success of engineering projects and why project management is important for that success.
