Project Cycle Management in IT (CARNET)
Course details
The aim of the course is to train students for a project approach to problems and situations in research and development projects (R&D) in ICT, which includes applying methods and tools characteristic of project management.
Working in teams, in the first part of the course, students will work on a standard IT project concept and conceptualize a software tool, with its user requirements. They will prepare an appropriate timeline, work breakdown structure, organizational breakdown structure, RACI matrix, financial plan, and a risk management plan.
In the second part, they will work in a team to extend the developed IT project concept, and create an R&D project proposal: they will prepare a project proposal for the EU funded projects in line with the requirements of a specific call (e.g. Erasmus+, European Structural and Investment Funds). Students will be able to use EU funds and programs for financing of development IT projects.
