My project management background combines a Management Engineering thesis with an ITS course I designed and taught using the PMBOK® Guide — Seventh Edition as its main bibliographic reference.
The thesis examined project management in software and startup environments. The course complemented the PMBOK Guide with the Scrum Guide, Agile, BPMN, Lean and Kanban literature, and applied examples.
This page brings together the thesis, the 2024 course program and the complete teaching materials.

My thesis follows the development of a software product from the initial idea to a minimum viable product.
It examines funding, team formation and management, followed by the Inception, Construction and Release phases. This research later provided part of the academic foundation for the course.
Programma_Project_Management_ITS_2024.pdfI designed and taught this course for ITS Logistica Sostenibile in 2024.
It provides an operational view of project management, from roles, stakeholders and organizational context to planning, uncertainty, risk, quality, predictive and adaptive approaches, and software projects.
