  • Information Technology Project Management (ITM 325)
  • This course introduces the software project management concept dealing with integration, scope, time, cost, quality, human resource, communication, risk, procurement, and stakeholder management. It focuses on skills, tools, and ethics as they relate to Information Technology (IT) projects, programs, and portfolio management.

    The textbook "Information Technology Project Management, 8th Edition @2016 by Kathy Schwalbe", which is followed to teach this course emphasizes the latest developments and skills to help a student prepare for the Project Management Professional (PMP) or Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) exams. While this textbook edition reflects content from the latest PMBOK Guide of the Project Management Institute (PMI), it goes well beyond the Guide to provide a meaningful context for project management. Hundreds of timely examples highlight IT projects, while quick quizzes, discussion questions, exercises, and ongoing cases reinforce learning. Time-saving template files assist in completing tasks. Examples from familiar companies featured in today's news, an Agile case, MindView software, and a guide to using Microsoft Project help any student master IT project management skills that are marketable around the globe.
