New unit - Project Management - Caulfield campus

Published: 24 June 2009

From second semester 2009 the Faculty of Information Technology is introducing FIT5057 Project Management. This subject has been introduced due to popular demand from students and the employment marketplace. Students must be enrolled in a Postgraduate course at Monash to undertake this unit. Project management can be beneficial to you no matter what industry you belong to or would like to be in, including the aeronautical, construction or technology industries.

Many companies are now regarding project management as being mandatory for the survival of the firm. Organisational redesign is occurring at a rapid rate because of shorter product life cycles, rapidly changing already dynamic environments, accelerated development of sophisticated information systems, and increased marketplace competitiveness. Additionally, project management is often used as a training ground to prepare future general managers, as in fact project managers get to know more about the total operation of a company than most executives.
