The educational goal of the course is to introduce students to the concept of strategic project management. Through the course, students will be introduced to the strategic approach in managing projects, taking in to account business strategy on one side, and project characteristic on the other side, in order to achieve organizational goals. The strategic interrelation between the project, as a temporary endevour, and a permanent organization, in which it is carried out, is of great importance for the expected success of the project. This is an integral knowledge for management at the strategic level.

Students who successfully pass pre-exam obligations and the exam are able to: (1) understand the importance of a strategic approach in project management; (2) develop a project strategy; (3) harmonize projects and processes with a business strategy; (4) make decisions about the selection of projects based on the analysis using the acquired knowledge about the relevant models.
