Based on the practical application of the project management concept, they will gain knowledge of management methods that enable effective formation and organization in the implementation of complex targeted programs. These programs are a set of interrelated activities aimed at achieving specific socio-economic objectives. Innovative projects and programs for their implementation play a key role in the development of modern economic mechanisms for managing the scientific and technological progress of a country. The diversity of objectives and challenges associated with scientific and technological development determines the wide range of types of innovation projects, thus creating room for their adaptation to different needs and conditions of practice.
By completing the course, students will gain knowledge of the theory and methodology of managing innovative projects in the enterprise and acquire the necessary skills and competencies for the management of project creation, management and implementation. An innovative project represents a system of interrelated objectives and programs aimed at their successful implementation. This system comprises a complex of research, development, production, organizational, financial, business and other activities that are appropriately organized and linked to resources, timelines and suppliers. Project documentation is a key tool to ensure that specific scientific and technical challenges or problems are effectively addressed, with results expressed in quantitative indicators and directed towards the deployment of innovations.
