COMM-2095Project Management
Technical communicators may work with little or no supervision, or may work as part of a team. Therefore students must learn how to manage their own projects and how to be an effective member of a project team. In this course students will learn how to conduct a needs analysis, conduct an audience analysis, define the scope of a project, develop estimates, negotiate for resources, create and keep to a schedule. They will learn how to complete a project, create project archives, and submit a completion report. This course will cover both the Hackos document development method and the Project Management Institute (PMI) Body Of Knowledge (PMBOK).
