The Master in Project Management seeks to develop managerial skills in project planning, management, strategy and innovation. Currently, private and public institutions have accepted the importance of carrying out projects in order to take advantage of the opportunities that are presented to them, to achieve competitive advantages in their environment, managing to solve problems or satisfy the needs in their operation.
Project management is the application of knowledge, tools, skills and techniques, to achieve the requirements, the different needs and expectations that stakeholders –Stakeholders- have about the project; This involves the balance between competent demands that are presented in the scope, quality, program, budget, resources and risk of the project, in accordance with the provisions of the Project Management Institute (PMI®)
To develop successful projects, the project manager must not only distinguish the characteristics and areas of knowledge of the discipline of each project, but also master the tools and techniques that must be used during the stages of each one of them.
