This will be a fundamental experience for your professional development as an IT expert"

In this professional master’s degree, students will learn, from an online mode, to manage and monitor a technological project, either in an international company or in their own consultancy. Nowadays, this type of work is in great demand due to the importance of these jobs in any sector. Therefore, the student will have the opportunity to start with introductory classes on the design and management of these projects, reviewing in detail the role of the manager and the organizational structure. Then, they will learn how to estimate the scope and time management, starting with a baseline and ending with the definition of the activities to be performed.

Carrying out a technology project not only requires managing the work and evaluating the activities to be performed. It is also necessary to prepare a budget to help assess the costs of its elaboration. For this purpose, the student will have an exclusive module on this topic, which will provide them with the tools and techniques for budget planning, and then provide useful information on the preparation and presentation of the final budget.

On the other hand, no project can be complete until a risk assessment is performed. Therefore, the student will be able to learn, through this program, the basic concepts such as severity, attitudes towards risk, individual risk, among others. In addition, the student will learn to perform an assessment of unrelated hazards, as well as a qualitative and quantitative analysis that will serve to develop a timely response to any adverse situation that may arise.

After completing the professional master’s degree, students and graduates of computer science or any other degree will be able to efficiently execute and carry out any technological project that requires their expertise. You will also develop your project management and administration skills, which will benefit your professional profile for working with international employers.
