Description

This course will cover successful strategies in project management and mentorship. Students in the course will serve as project managers (PM) and mentors to the students enrolled in BMEN.1070: Introduction to Biomedical Engineering. PMs will facilitate one to two groups in the completion of their semester long project in BMEM.1070. They will set deadlines, assess work, manage the project, and participate in weekly professional development meetings. We will discuss how to run successful meetings, to set achievable goals, and to optimize time and budget constraints in order to ensure successful completion of a BME related project. We will also explore career options as a project manager, learn about their job responsibilities, and learn essential tools commonly used by PMs in industry.
