Effective Software project management is crucial to the success of any software development or maintenance project. The roles and responsibilities of the project manager is numerous and varied. However, at the broad level, these can be classified in to the project planning and monitoring and control activities. Project planning involves making cost, effort, and duration estimation and preparing various types of plans such as schedule, configuration management, risk management, quality management, staffing plan, etc. The monitoring and control activities encompass keeping track of the progress and removing bottlenecks using techniques such as PERT, GANTT, and also effective risk management, team building, etc.

Intended audience: CSE, IT

Prerequisites: Basic Programming Course
