The application
of knowledge is a key success factor to learning. This class focuses
on the practical application of project management principles by
managing a project from beginning to end with a software-based
project simulation package. The simulator reinforces the importance
of properly resourcing tasks on a project, managing the critical
path, effective communication and utilizing earned value reporting

students are more prepared to apply good project management
practices to real life situations.
