Whether students are managing a complex project, bringing a new product to market or managing an organizational change, this course provides students with the skills and knowledge to plan, implement, control and deliver their projects at strategic and operational levels. Students will gain significant analytical, interpersonal and practical competencies through tailored modules that cover advance planning and visualization, risk management, procurement and contract strategy, health and safety, managing operations and finance, and management of change.
