Projects are all around us. Specifically, in science the planning and management of projects is highly complex and requires a set of tools and techniques to perform successfully. Project management includes excellent techniques to allocate, use, and monitor resources to achieve a goal in a desired time frame. In a scientific setting, goals may include the set-up of experiments, the allocation of grants, publishing a paper, or even achieving tenure.
To develop a common language, this comprehensive workshop imparts a toolbox of project management skills for doctoral resesarchers and/or postdocs from various disciplines. It provides basic project management concepts and principles based on international standards (PMI). An important part of this training includes aspects of agile project management and how to integrate flexible project work into a research environment. During this highly interactive workshop scientists will go through the full project life cycle to develop highly valued transferable competencies to enhance their professional portfolio.
