CONTENT, ASSESSMENT AND WORKLOAD

Content

  • valid for whole curriculum period:

    The future success of businesses will require firms and individuals to change and adapt in a rapidly evolving and highly competitive environment. Hence, any change process within a business will need to embrace the full spectrum of competences and approaches. Businesses must be agile and quick in creating temporary organization structures to implement such changes to survive, compete or lead. This course will introduce students to the study of agile project management in order to tackle increasing complexities and the need for adaptability. Agile methodologies encourage continuous user involvement, providing higher visibility and transparency within the agile project life cycle. This results in a sharper focus on creating business value. In addition, agile approaches are more iterative compared to traditional approaches, and thus better suited to projects with high complexity and shorter planning horizons. Students will be engaged in a variety of activities to understand the importance, challenges, and best practices of agile project management.
