Project Management Foundations: Project Schedule and Project Cost

In-person (Register for location)

Co-led with the UVA School of Continuing and Professional Studies, this series is designed specifically for graduate students and postdocs and introduces core project management strategies to enhance the participants' work both within and beyond academia. Designed for real-time application, participants will guide a concrete deliverable (e.g., a collaborative grant proposal, travel to conduct archival research, intensive fieldwork logistics, piloting a new research method) through the project management life cycle, concept by concept.

This session will unpack the essential concepts behind building and managing a project schedule. Participants will gain practical insight into schedule development, learning how to build traditional project schedules using tools like Gantt charts, Excel, or MS Planner.
