Project Management for Scientists

Course Description

This workshop is designed to fit the needs of scientists in the Life
Sciences. Key concepts and terms in project management will be
introduced and the participants will have many opportunities to
immediately apply what they have learned to their current projects. The
participants will learn, for example, how to properly plan a project, how to
define goals, how to organize their workdays, to achieve their goals and
how to have effective meetings. Additonally, we will talk about
expectations and responsibilities that come along when you take on a
project. Often, these are not explicitly communicated and can lead to
frictions during the course of a project. At the end of the workshop, the
particpants will have clarity about their next steps to move their project
forward.
