Is this course for me?

GCom7832: International IT Project Management (2 cr.), is reserved to MSMIT and MSA graduate students.  MSA students will complete additional work to get to 3 cr.
Knowledge of Spanish is helpful but not required.  Translators will be provided to support you at the client sites. Some Mendocinos speak English reasonably well.
Due to logistic constraints, enrollment is limited to 18 students (15 MSMIT max.). The program may not be offered with fewer than ten participants.

What do past participants say?

Awesome experience. Authentic consulting. The course is intensive and packed with activities, including evenings.  Think of it as a business trip.  Past participants reported that it is an exciting and rewarding experience, but also that there will be no time for true R&R. If you wish to do some sightseeing, explore the city, or relax in a warm, beautiful location, plan to either come a few days earlier or stay a few days after the conclusion of the course.
