Información sobre Curso

The need for strategic project management experience in business has grown, with organizations now requiring an increase in efficiency and agility to gain a competitive advantage. Traditionally, project management focuses on the application of tactics, but to overcome the complexities of a dynamic business environment, a defined strategy to make these tactics more effective is required.

The Strategic Project Management online short course from Rice University’s Susanne M. Glasscock School of Continuing Studies goes beyond traditional project management and equips you with the strategic techniques, skills, and tools to successfully achieve organizational and project-related goals. Over the course of eight weeks, you’ll learn to apply strategic thinking by aligning project, program, or portfolio goals to an organization's strategic plans. You’ll also gain the ability to lead and manage project teams in an agile manner. Throughout the course you’ll familiarize yourselves with a tool kit of strategic project management resources that you can use after you’ve completed the course.

This course is geared toward project management professionals looking to validate and expand their strategic expertise. Senior executives and managers involved in strategic decisions and functional specialists in operational roles will benefit from completing this course, as will those who need to drive strategic project management through execution. The course is also suited for business unit heads who want to transition from an operational to a more strategic role.
