What does the Project Management course include?
The teaching is built for real business practice. You learn the methods and tools companies actually use — and you apply them immediately in your collaboration with a local company. Each week, you work on concrete deliverables such as project plans, scope definition, stakeholder analysis, risk assessment, and follow-up, ensuring that learning is continuously translated into tangible results.
You are not left to manage on your own. You work in a group with participants from different professional backgrounds, bringing a strong interdisciplinary perspective to the case. At the same time, you receive close guidance from instructors who support you in developing your case, maintaining progress, and ensuring that your solutions create real value for the company—and can be clearly documented on your CV afterwards.
Project Management in Practice
The 6-week programme consists of teaching, case work, and group work, where you engage with real-life projects and learn to apply methods and tools within project management. The teaching alternates between lectures, exercises, and feedback, ensuring you gain solid outcomes—regardless of your background.
Internship
Throughout the 6 weeks, you work with a local company on a case you have chosen yourself. You collaborate with other highly educated participants and use your interdisciplinary perspectives to develop solutions, which you present to the company at the end of the 6 weeks.
