MPM210 Introduction to Project Management
This course is designed to provide an overview and introduction to the discipline of project management, coupled with an examination of the techniques that project managers use to complete their projects on schedule, within budgeted cost, and according to specified scope. Using materials from the PMBOK® Guide (Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge, published by the Project Management Institute or PMI®), students study the operational framework of project management relating to the project lifecycle of starting the project, organizing and planning the project, carrying out the work, and closing the project by using the project management process groups called Initiating Process Group, Planning Process Group, Executing Process Group, Monitoring and Controlling Process Group, and Closing Process Group as described in A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide). This course also provides the basis for the development of project management skills in subsequent project management courses.
