Understanding Project Management, Third Edition presents a practical, real-world guide for aspiring and practicing project managers. The text follows an ongoing case study from inception to completion. The case guides students through the key aspects of a project, including its scope, quality, schedule, and budget, while also exploring the less tangible challenges that can often either derail a project or lead to its success.

This well-updated new edition features expanded content on agile project management with a new scrum case study, exploration of hybrid project management techniques, and new content on the history of project management, working with remote and international project teams, and Earned Value Management.

Understanding Project Management clearly presents key waterfall, agile, and hybrid project management concepts with examples to enhance learning. This practical guide is an invaluable resource for project management courses at colleges and universities in the US and Canada.
