About this app

Project management (PM) plays a key role in successfully meeting customer requirements, delivering outputs and implementing new technologies across economic sectors (not only) in the Czech Republic. The introduction of new technologies into PM and its teaching is a trend supported not only by digital transformation, but also by the Covid pandemic, which accelerated the implementation of technologies enabling online communication and management in the real business world. Times are changing rapidly, but neither project methodologies nor teaching are responding proactively enough. Universities, as the main providers of education in the field of PM, must and want to equip their graduates with up-to-date knowledge in order to ensure the competitiveness of the entire economy – practice needs graduates who will bring modern and innovative tools and methods to business.

The DigiPM project responds to the outputs of a pilot research survey conducted by the UWB Faculty of Economics in 2021, which showed a gap in the content and forms of PM teaching, where current teaching concepts are unable to include the complete project life cycle and do not incorporate any of the modern digital technologies that have a positive effect on the learning/knowledge acquisition process.
