Project management Field of study: Materials Science and Engineering
Programme code: 08-S2MA12.2018

The overall objective of the module is to provide students with selected basic issues of project management and to form the skill of practical application of those methods and techniques in this field. In particular the subject area of the module covers developing students skills in the context of analysis and interpretation of basic project management aspects. A synthetic characteristic of the project management context (impact of organisational conditions on projects implementation success) contributes to acquiring the knowledge in the area of organisational role and functions description and to build students skill in the field of managing and cooperating in projects introducing specific changes in the organisation. Another detailed objective of the module consists of the analysis of personal project management problems (dilemmas related to building the project team identity), which consolidates students’ knowledge and skills in the field of organising and managing the team (project, task etc.) work. A practical use of project tools and techniques in the context of planning and control (own project preparing) results in acquiring by students the skill to plan and manage the time in team projects and to effectively manage the entrusted human, tangible, financial and information resources to perform tasks. Through a team development of own projects students acquire also the skill of developing and effective use of interpersonal skills.
