What you will study
This module considers the whole life cycle of projects, from initiation, through to planning, scheduling, execution, handover and review. The principles and processes are contextualised through reference to case studies and you are encouraged to develop your own reflections on the applicability, or not, of the principles and processes to projects within your own organisation, industry or area of practice. You will review and evaluate frameworks and standards.
The module includes case studies from a variety of technological settings. Throughout the life cycle the recurring topics of stakeholders, finance, risk, people, project administration and quality are discussed in the context of what the project manager is doing, responding to or monitoring. Tools and techniques for project managers are explained and evaluated, to facilitate the development of your own expertise in choosing appropriate techniques and applying them in your professional practice. You will be encouraged to engage with the choice between using project management software or working through techniques manually to deepen your understanding and ability to evaluate output from software packages. Microsoft Project 2010 is provided or you can use a package you are familiar with provided it enables you address the activities and assessment in the module.
This module is presented wholly online. Your study is directed from the module website with a study planner to guide you through the text materials, the activities and the assessment. Where you need to study additional materials, such as case studies, articles and journal papers you will be directed to these.
Vocational relevance
The module takes a broad approach to technological projects and will be relevant to project managers and those wishing to increase their knowledge about project management. The tools and techniques presented will be of use to project managers and team members in improving the effectiveness of their teams.
This module is accredited by the Association for Project Management (APM) and will refer to the APM Body of Knowledge (6th edition), British and International Standards, Prince2, CMMI and many other established sources.
Entry
This module is suitable for you if you have experience of working on projects, possibly as a team member, and you do not need to have worked on all phases of the project lifecycle.
If you have not worked on projects you need to have experience of working in organisations and be able to relate your experience to projects.
You would benefit from already having some awareness of project management processes, although you do not need to be a practicing project manager. In the assessment you will need to reflect on project work that you have done and be able to relate the tools and techniques presented in the module to a project, or a situation within a project, within your experience.
This is a postgraduate module and you will need to be able to demonstrate in the assessment that you can analyse and evaluate situations and theories and communicate at the appropriate level. Guidance on postgraduate study skills is given. If you are new to postgraduate study, or returning to study after a gap you are likely to need more time to study the module.
Your spoken and written English must be of an adequate standard for postgraduate study. If English is not your first language, we recommend that you will need a minimum overall score of 6 and minimum score of 5.5 in each of the four components: reading, writing, speaking and listening under the International English Language Testing System (IELTS). Please see the IELTS website for details.
If you have any doubt about the suitability of the module, please contact our Student Registration & Enquiry Service.
