The course is a combination of online sessions in MS Teams and assignments that students carry out between sessions. The course introduces students to project management and project-oriented organisations. Students learn basic concepts, principles of project management and project management methods. The course teaches project management basics as well as the special features of project-oriented organisations. In particular, we reflect on how human resource management can support project orientation in organisations. By analysing project management standards, students gain insights into project management practice. The course enables students to reflect on the benefits and limitations of project management and project orientation and their consequences for HRM.

• Understanding of projects as temporary organisations developed.
• Core project management methods were applied, and the most project management standards are known.
• The concept of the project-oriented organisation and practical examples were reflected.
• Specifics of human resource management in project-oriented organisations and examples from practice were reflected.
