HMGK03061U AMIS: Project Management

Project management is an important skill for planning and carrying out projects. This course introduces the students to the tasks of project organization and management, with the purpose of providing the students with some basic tools for carrying out own projects, taking the student through the whole process of carrying out a migration-related project. Through a combination of texts and group exercises, we learn about the various phases and stages of project management, especially of planning, administration and evaluation. We will discuss project design according to project type and problem definition, rehearsing some of the quantitative and qualitative methods from module 1. We will furthermore consider questions of estimating resources, time and deliveries that are essential to good project management. The course will give the students the possibility to reflect on and discuss general problematics stemming from their own initial experiences and formulations of projects.
