Project Management Maroon Badge

Students are now able to: define major characteristics of a project, be familiar with various formats of Work Breakdown Structure, understand Project Scheduling terminology (such as critical path analysis, triple constraints, and slack), know the difference between cost estimating and cost budgeting, and expose students to estimating and budget methods.
