In an international context, the challenges inherent to managing limited resources become even more complex as international projects involve collaboration among people from different countries, cultures, practices, beliefs, and expectations. The overall aim of the course is to introduce the traditional project management process and to provide students with the basic skills and knowledge to work with projects in an international context.
