Description
This specializing master is made of 527 hours of lectures split between 416 hours of
various project and safety management subjects, 75 hours of digitization, and 36 hours
about soft skills. No intermediate tests are scheduled, instead at the end of the course
250 working hours will be dedicated to the writing of a master thesis that will be
reviewed and judged by the academic committee. The subject of the thesis must be the
description of a project, or eventually more projects, in which each student is involved
while following the master, or has been involved in the past. And the ultimate goal of
the thesis is to show how each student has learnt to use in her/his profession some of
the tools provided by the master. Each student will be able to write her/his dissertation
autonomously.
Educational project
This specializing master course aims to give the main tools of project management to
both engineers and architects. Nowadays it is getting more and more important to
know
how any project should be managed from its inception to its end, in order to optimize
costs and to get forward according to a predefined schedule. During this specializing
master the students will be introduced to the theory of project management, of
investment valuation, and financial accounting. They will receive all the information
needed to obtain the PMI (Project Management Institute) certifications and the IPMA
(International Project Management Association) certifications. They will also receive all
the information needed to obtain the NEBOSH HSE Certificate in Process Safety
Management. They will receive all the information needed to become a Lean Green Belt
Project Leader. And all the information needed to become an accredited project
manager in Italy with Accredia. Besides all these PM tools, specific knowledge about
digitization of the construction industry and about data analysis, learning how to use a
powerful tool like Matlab for data management. Today in fact project and safety
managers can no longer do without a deep knowledge about a trend, digitization of the
construction industry, which is only destined to become ever more important in coming
years. The construction industry generates a huge amount of data which until now have
been mostly wasted. The ability to collect those data, to store them, to interpret and to
use them efficiently will lead in the future to major competitive advantages. So much
so
that ultimately project and safety managers and data analysts are going to become
just
one professional figure. Last but not least, a whole unit is about soft skills, those
interpersonal attitudes and capabilities of leadership and communication that make the
difference between a good project manager and a mediocre one.
