Overview
What you will study
Benefit shortfalls, cost overruns, and delays are common during project implementation and often projects are challenged from the beginning – the Project Management course offered by University of Oxford will teach you how to overcome these challenges and deliver projects successfully.
Many best practice guides for project management focus on processes that each project must have. In this course we focus not on process but on key questions that have proven to be essential for projects large and small.
Organisations are seeking to increase efficiency and cut costs - how money is invested in projects is critical in the current challenging business environment.
Selecting, prioritizing and delivering the right projects that directly support the strategy of the organisation has never been more important. Key to this strategic objective is effective Project Management, a framework to ensure that investments in projects are delivered successfully and flexibly throughout the project lifecycle from idea through to delivery and close-out. In short, Project Management ensures organisations are fit for the future and this course will teach you how to improve the delivery of projects in your organisation.
