About Lean Methodology and Project Management
The modern workplace is more complex than ever. As a consequence, the ability to coordinate efficient and productive collaboration is a skill set highly desired by employers across all industries. This program introduces participants to principles of Six Sigma and Project Management methods. Students will work hands-on with tools such as Microsoft Project, Microsoft Visio, and Microsoft Excel that are commonly used to practice these methods to reinforce theory.
Student Evaluation
Students’ academic progress will be evaluated after each course grade has been awarded. In general and unless otherwise stated, the minimum grade to maintain satisfactory progress is 70% or C-. Students must achieve a minimum term grade point average of 2.0.
A course may not be repeated more than once without approval of the designated academic official. Grades achieved in courses that are repeated due to course withdrawal (W, WP) or failure (F, WF) will replace previous withdrawal or failing grades. A student who is approved to repeat a course due to a failing grade (F, WF) must successfully pass the course by the third attempt. After three failed attempts the student will be academically dismissed (for appeal of academic dismissal, see Appealing an Academic Dismissal).
