After this workshop, participants will have methods and tools to successfully develop, manage and supervise research projects. They will be able to:
• Set project objectives
• Structure and plan a project
• Define roles and responsibilities in projects
• Create the project budget
• Manage risks
• Establish a communication plan
• Guide and control projects in a flexible and meaningful way.

The workshop addresses the following questions:
• What is a project and what are the main impact factors?
• What should I do to successfully complete my research projects?
• How should I structure, plan and guide my projects?
• How should I communicate with my stakeholders (prof., team members, sponsors, etc.)?

Approach
No prior knowledge of project management is required for this very practical workshop. Theoretical inputs will be applied during the group exercises. All participants should be working on approved/financed research projects.
