This unit information may be updated and amended immediately prior to semester. To ensure you have the correct outline, please check it again at the beginning of semester.
Effective project management requires high quality planning. Despite the care taken in the setting up and planning stages, the unpredictable and dynamic context in which projects operate means that many projects run behind schedule, over budget and/or have their scope compromised. This can be the result of action by a stakeholder or the emergence of previously identified or unforeseen risks. This unit provides students with the skills and knowledge to identify and assess variations from the agreed plan using techniques such as earned value management. The results of this can help shape appropriate responses ranging from a trade-off in constraints, to the implementation of aggressive scheduling techniques such as 'crashing', or even termination of the project.

This unit uses technology enhanced learning (TEL) to enhance the teaching and learning experiences for students by enabling them to engage in ways that would not normally be available or effective in a more traditional environment. All learning activities are designed to develop digital communication skills, critical thinking and teamwork. All students are required to complete set activities before engaging in workshops or discussions. While on-campus students attend classroom workshops, online students participate via Blackboard and will require regular online access. Webinars may also be used during the semester to bring both cohorts together or to stream in a guest lecturer from industry.
