This class is quite helpful in providing insight as to what problems you will encounter in the future as a project manager or an engineer through the simulation reports. The simulation reports are complex problems that require careful thinking and analysis in order to solve them. Obviously, the feedback that we get from the professor on the proposed experiments to test for certain things, often causes the problem to become harder as new information is acquired even though it may not help you. I think that the overall content of the material was quite informative and concise. The lecture material covers a lot of information on different topics such as the FDA, the project cycle phases, and different calculations (e.g. schedule variance, cost variance) that are made in projects. I think that this course is absolutely essential for people who wish to work in industry as it covers a great of material regarding the different roles of the job titles. besides that, the course covers the paperwork and regulatory hurdles that one must address when working on a project. This will help students make a more informed decision as to whether they wish to work in industry or academia.
