Fundamentals of Project Management provides a comprehensive and structured approach to mastering waterfall project management principles and practices for building and executing technical engineering-related projects. In this course, you will tap into the expertise of Johns Hopkins faculty to deepen your understanding of planning, execution, monitoring, controlling, and closing projects, with a strong focus on leadership, teamwork, and effective communication.

Dive into essential topics with practical projects to learn to define a project, understand the project management life cycle, and the roles and responsibilities of a project manager. In this course, you will apply theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios, and develop essential skills such as risk mitigation, quality assurance, conflict resolution, and resource optimization.

You’ll learn project management by working with a realistic $9 million automated inventory and drone delivery system scenario throughout the entire course<\/strong>. You’ll apply every concept\u2014from creating work breakdown structures to developing comprehensive project plans\u2014using this detailed case study of a 12-month technology project involving software integration, hardware procurement, and system deployment. Take on the role of project planning and analysis, creating the same deliverables and presentations that real project managers develop for executive leadership.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
