Student Feedback
Here are some quotes from students who completed
MGT 614 Advanced Project Management, the capstone course,
in the Graduate Certificate in Project Management.
Student 1
I learned how to view a project from many different perspectives…
I found the classification models to be a powerful and useful tool…
Overall, I was pleased with the focus that was offered.
The case study provided excellent insight into PM in my
organization.
Student 2
I found the case study analysis to be most helpful in honing my
integration skills.
The Case Study Guidelines were very methodical and
well structured.
By providing the guidelines upfront there was no ambiguity in expectations.
The classification models provided an excellent framework to segment
customers and projects from a project manager’s perspective.
I’m assimilating the valuable information obtained
through this course to see how I can apply the techniques
towards real life projects.
I was able to network with the real world project team members fairly
effectively.
Student 3
This class has…allowed me to leverage myself
within my organization.
Provided me opportunities to use skills
acquired in past and present classes.
I could apply everything in one way or another, to my
company.
My case study gave me a great deal of insight into my company’s
established and evolving PM structure.
…the most notable advantage was in making my skill sets and education
known to those who can (and have committed to) open new doors
for me, particularly my Area Director.
I find this the opportune time to establish myself as a PM within my
company, as there are currently many excellent opportunities.
I was selected to lead an ~$2.8 million dollar installation for a customer!
I could not have put myself in this position without the Stevens curriculum!
Student 4
...has given me the opportunity to analyze the practice of
project management at my organization.
I was able to network with team members to further
understand their problems and concerns over project management.
Student 5
Case study discussion was an excellent source for understanding the
principles of Project Management
The best thing I liked was interviewing people at different levels and
getting their point of view on the project.
Guidelines were very helpful and an excellent
way of understanding the project from different perspectives.
I found the classification models effective and useful.
The case study provided excellent insight into PM in my organization.
I was able to understand my company’s
processes and methodology much better.
Student 6
My career as a project manager has just begun.
Stevens has prepared me well
...with the ability to observe
situations more critically than my peers.
Case studies, coupled with theoretical knowledge, are an excellent way to
compress many years of experience into just a few.
Student 7
..provided a deeper insight into the causes of
PM problems at my company.
PM is definitely
a career for me.
Student 8
I was able to identify both good and not so good practices, and make
appropriate determinations and recommendations that could improve
project management practices and project results.
I learned that I learned a lot about project management.
...gave me greater insight into project management in
my organization…
I was prompted to ask questions that I likely would never have asked
—as I wouldn’t have even thought to ask them.
Student 9
The knowledge that I gained here will prove valuable in
future projects.
