Course detail
Project Management of Innovation
FEKT-MPRIAcad. year: 2017/2018
Project Management (PM) is methodical instrument for preparation and realization of changes in general, including technical product and process innovation in the concrete. PM and its SW support is usable during study, for management activity generally and for industrial innovation processes of course. PM is needed attribute not only successful changes from starting stage to recognized aim but also necessary requirement of convincing project proposal and obtaining of necessary financial recources (grant angency, banks, risk capital, programme committies EU, etc).

Learning outcomes of the course unit
Absolvent is able to describe and explain:
- inovative project (target, aim, outputs, activity, resources),
- each analytical steps (compononets, structure, functions, parameters, costs, innovation task),
- typical inventive task (technical contradicktion, physical contradiction, substance or field conflicts, technical function),
- recommendation for finding of solutins (heuristics, separation, solution patterns, scientific effects).
Absolvent is able to use: analysis of object, synthesis of innnovative solution, search of relevant information and knowledgefor problem solving.
Absolvent is able to create: report describing solution of a project.
Prerequisites
The subject knowledge on the Bachelor´s degree level is requested, accomplished semestral project SP1 and bachelor projekt (BP).
Student who will book this course should to know taks to be solved in projects (SP2 and DP) where topics mastered in MPRI can be utilized:
- data mining, - knowledge mining, - analysis of object to be innovated, - solution of innovative-inventive tasks, - verification of solution variants,...) and software support by Goldfire tools (analysis, synthesis, datamining, knowledge mining, patent collolections, trend analysis, semantic processor, multicriterial evaluation of variants...).
Co-requisites
