In this 2-credit introductory course, students will develop an understanding of the concepts and principles associated with the Theory of Constraints and Critical Chain thinking. We will explore the proposition that project managers should focus on those activities that are resource-constrained as opposed to the project's critical path when monitoring project progress. We will analyze case studies that test and extend these ideas in real-world scenarios. Through the review of these case studies, students will develop an understanding of the principles associated with the theory of constraints, critical chain approaches, and how they might be used within project management.
