Information Technology Project Management is the first project management book with a focus solely on Information Technology projects. This title combines the best of both worlds: an academic book that treats project management from a research point of view, providing running cases and other strong pedagogical elements; and a practical book that provides hands-on projects at the end of each chapter using Microsoft Project, the tool of choice in this market. It also provides excellent preparation for the PMI (Project Management Institute) certification exam. Five chapters include a running case on ResNet, a highly successful project implementation taken directly from Northwest Airlines.
