This unit is offered to students completing the MBA and MISM masters degrees at Swinburne.It is aimed at professionals who are "mid-career" with relevant experience and seeking to gain deeper understanding of project management in large/complex systems/IT based projects in order to further their careers and be more efective in the project management aspects of their jobs.
