Registration is required. There are 20 in-person seats available. There are 17 online seats available.

Part of the hidden curriculum of grad school is learning how to plan, execute, and manage long-term projects. Some projects may include managing budgets, research assistants, or negotiating with collaborators across time zones. 

In this interactive workshop, we will explore:

  • Core principles and concepts of project management tailored to academic and research contexts
  • Setting and communicating objectives
  • Techniques for creating project timelines and staying on task
  • Team collaboration strategies

Expect to learn more and experiment with Gantt charts, as well as other free tools that could streamline your collaborative workflows.
