Aim and content
This is a generic course. This means that the course is reserved for PhD students at the Graduate School of Health and Medical Sciences at UCPH. Anyone can apply for the course, but if you are not a PhD student at the Graduate School, you will be placed on the waiting list until enrollment deadline. After the enrolment deadline, available seats will be allocated to the waiting list.

The course is free of charge for PhD students at Danish universities (except Copenhagen Business School). Special rules apply for research year students enrolled at Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences at UCPH. All other participants must pay the course fee.

Course title
“Scientific Project Planning and Management” 2.

Learning objectives
A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to:

Familiarise himself/herself with the most important project management methods and instruments

Content
The main topic areas covered are:
Project management (Tools and ideas to help you take ownership of the project; you learn to apply these tools directly to your own project during the course)
• More advanced time planning and check-up on what we’ve done in Course 1
• Strategic planning – tools that help you to look beyond a one-year-horizon
• How to identify and manage the various stakeholders in the project
• Identify and deal with sources of poor quality in the project

Collaborations and tutoring
• Keeping collaborations running smoothly
• Handling conflicts
• Sharing knowledge, information and data
• Tools to make tutoring more productive (in addition to the time management and PM tools they already have)
o how to delegate effectively,
o how to help you solve your own problems, rather than others solving them for you
o asking questions that make you think

Career development
• Strategic career planning (develop awareness that you need to plan)
o Have you got what it takes to succeed in academia?
o What options have you outside academia?
o Who should you talk to?
o How do you need to develop yourself to prepare for a new position?
• securing funding – a tool to help you craft an effective story about your idea
