E – 3056 Principles of Engineering Project Management

This online course provides a focused introduction to the core principles of project management for technical and multidisciplinary engineering work.

This course covers the full project life cycle and explains how planning, scheduling, cost control, contract structures, and risk management support effective project delivery. It delves into how established tools, such as WBS, CPM, EVM, and industry quality standard, are applied in engineering contexts, and how leadership, communication, and ethical responsibilities influence decision-making. Understanding the integration of technical processes with structured management practices equips engineers with the practical methods to manage scope, coordinate teams, and meet regulatory and professional obligations.

This course is applicable to engineers across civil, mechanical, electrical, environmental, structural, and related disciplines, as well as technical professionals involved in planning, coordinating, or managing engineering projects.
