CTI Launches Project Management Degree
Employers consistently rank information technology (IT) project management as one of their most critical needs. Responding to this market demand, DePaul University's School of Computer Science, Telecommunications and Information Systems (CTI) is launching a master's degree program in IT project management this fall. The program, aimed at students with a bachelor's degree and IT experience, seeks to combine technology skills with a set of project leadership and process management skills to produce exemplary IT project managers.Coursework will focus on a number of areas, including risk management, procurement and contract management, time and cost estimation, tracking techniques, IT testing and quality assurance. Students can complete the 13-course degree in one or two years, depending on the quantity of course work attempted each quarter. The program is offered on DePaul's Chicago Loop Campus and via CTI's industry-leading distance learning technology. For more information, visit www.cti.depaul.edu.
