Course detail
Project management of innovation
FEKT-NPRIAcad. year: 2018/2019
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 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
Elaboration of semestral projects (SP1, SP2) and diploma project (DP) is requested where can be utilized topics mastered during course MPRI studying:
- data mining, - knowledge mining, - analysis of object to be innovated, - solution of innovative-inventive tasks, - verification of solution variants,...) and software support tools (analzsis, synthesis, data-mining, knowledge-mining, patent collolections, trend anaysis, semantic processor,...).
Co-requisites
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
1. Dynamic explanation of each topics in frame of lectures (L1-L13). Most of materials located in e-learning.
2. Exercising of each topics supported by Goldfire Innovator software (E2-E12).
3. Elaboration of "microproject" in frame of exercisis or outside. Presentation of TRIZ methodology application.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
Examination 60 points.
