The seminar will provide a forum for doctoral students in project management from Europe and around the world, where they can share experiences in studying project management, exchanging information on:
– research and theoretical paradigms appropriate for project management
– research methodologies appropriate for research in project management
– literature on project management to inform their studies
Modern project management had its genesis as an off-shoot of Operations Research and Operations Management in the late 1940s. In the early days the focus was on using optimization algorithms such as critical path analysis, the earned value method, and Monte Carlo analysis to optimize the time and cost required to deliver the project’s objectives. It is recognized that the theoretical basis of project management is evolving, and this is an encumbrance to research in project management. With a weak theoretical basis, research paradigms are weak, and that is a threat to the research methodologies that follow. Our aim is to explore the research and theoretical paradigms appropriate for project management , and the methodological approaches that follow.
TIME AND LOCATION
The seminar will be held at the LILLE SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT, Lille, France.
The programme will start on August 17, 2009 and is scheduled to end August 21, 2009
