Innehåll och lärandemål
Kursinnehåll
Kursen fokuserar mer på att ge förståelse för problemställningarna förknippade med projektstyrning än på att ge praktisk färdighet i någon projektmetod. Exempel på olika projektmodeller ges dock av inbjudna gästföreläsare. I kursen behandlas följande moment: projektet som arbetsform, utvecklings-, leverans- och upphandlingsprojekt, samspelet mellan kund och leverantör, genomgång och exempel på projektmodeller, ett projekts olika faser, anbudsförfarande, ledarskap, gruppdynamik, riskanalys, projektdokument (t.ex. offertförfrågan, anbud, kontrakt, projekthandbok, projektplan/startrapport, progressrapport), projektavslut och utvärdering samt kvalitetsstandarder.
Lärandemål
Efter kursen skall deltagaren förstå vad en projektledare gör och hur man arbetar i ett industriellt projekt genom att kunna:
beskriva och tillämpa de olika faserna i ett projekt, dvs. planera, följa upp och avsluta ett projekt
använda metoder och verktyg för att planera och följa upp projekt med hänsyn till tid, kostnad och resurser
ge exempel på hur aktiviteter som planering, projektmöten, dokumentation och muntlig presentation skall genomföras
med utgångspunkt från en projektmodell skapa nödvändig projektdokumentation
planera och genomföra en riskanalys
analysera ett industriellt projekt redovisa resultat genom muntlig och skriftlig kommunikation

Målrelaterade betygskriterier/bedömningskriterier
The different submissions get graded with a number of course points, see Table 2 below. Some assignments can give either 3, 4 or 5 course points, whereas others are pass/fail only. To get more than three points, the assignment must be very well done when submitted the first time. This means that it should be clear that the authors have fully understood and mastered the important concepts and skills tested in that particular assignment in addition to having fulfilled the specific requirements. Both contents and form are important in this respect; i.e. no important contents or analysis should be missing, the structure and formatting should adhere to the relevant templates, and the text should be carefully proof-read.
Note that a higher grade can be rewarded for an assignment that is very well done, even if a re-submission is required due to some minor details. Whenever an assignment requires a re-submission to pass, the comments from the course staff will make it clear whether the final grade after re-submission is likely to be a pass or a pass with a higher grade. However, a higher grade is never guaranteed, but is completely determined by the quality of the final submission.

Etiskt förhållningssätt
Vid grupparbete har alla i gruppen ansvar för gruppens arbete.
Vid examination ska varje student ärligt redovisa hjälp som erhållits och källor som använts.
Vid muntlig examination ska varje student kunna redogöra för hela uppgiften och hela lösningen.

Please note that when solving the project assignments co-operation between students is allowed and even encouraged. However, both project group members are responsible for the content of their own reports and any plagiarism will result in an immediate failing of the assignment in addition to a written report to KTH’s central disciplinary committee.
This means that all groups should write their own reports. You are not allowed to copy text from other students; you are not allowed to copy text from the internet. If you want to use a quote from a source, it must be clearly indicated that it is a quote.
The use of references is mandatory. When you use a fact from some source you should include a reference to this source.
NOTE! The better the sources, the more accurate the facts, therefore please note that reports that use credible sources (as for instance peer-reviewed scientific papers) will receive higher grades than those that only rely on Wikipedia as a source.
Use references according to this or some similar standard but be consistent. For instance:
”Early assessment of system characteristics in software projects is one of the main concerns of the discipline of software architecture [1] [2] [3].”
List of references:
[1] Heineman, G., W. Councill (Eds), Component-based software engineering: Putting the pieces together, Addison-Wesley, 2001.
If the source is a web-page use the following standard.[name of page],[URL],[access date]
The members of the course staff correct hundreds of assignments every week. In order to give you quick and relevant feedback on your work, the following rules apply:
Assignments are done in groups of two, with the exception of assignment 3. These groups must be formed and reported on lists available at the lectures before Assignment 1 is submitted! Note that the members of a group must aspire to the same grade.
A prerequisite for obtaining a higher grade than an E is that all assignments and re-submissions are submitted on time!
The assignments are submitted in the pdf format via the Canvas system. Pdf files can be created with the Adobe Acrobat software, which is not free-of-charge. There are, however, several services on the Internet which can be used free-of-charge to create pdf files.
Any reports suggesting mass duplication will be unconditionally failed, and no opportunity to complete the course will be offered
Build a single pdf for each assignment. Do not hand in any appendices separatelyif not explicitly specified. Either build the pdf from a single document containing everything, or merge separate pdf files into a single one using Adobe Acrobat or free software services available on the internet.
You must name your assignment by the following convention: pdf, where “XX” is your group number (two digits, 01, 02, 03, etc), “Y” is a number between 1 and 3 indicating whether it is the first, second or third submission of the assignment, and “assignment” is one of the following: projectplan/ statusreport/ finalreport/ projectdescription/ riskanalysis/ agilereport (EH2720) / reflection (EH2070) / peerreview.
Example: G06_2019_projectplan_2.pdf is group 6’s project plan, which after correction had to be submitted a second time.
Optional parts of an assignment will only be corrected twice, i.e. if you don´t perform the necessary corrections after the first submission the chance to get a higher grade will be lost.
Assignments submitted after the deadline will be corrected during the next re-exam period.
Any complaints about the corrections are to be submitted in writing to the course responsible or examiner.

Kursadministration (in english)
The course administration and communication are handled on Canvas, the learning management system, reached via https://kth.instructure.com (NB: we are not using KTH Social): Canvas is used for:
Signing up in groups
Posting questions to the course administration
Communicating with other course participants
Reading and accessing instructions and other material needed for the assignments
Submission and re-submission of assignments
Obtaining corrected assignments and comments, and lists of results
Booking time slots for seminars
The course leaders are located at Teknikringen 33, ground floor (NSE department).
Attendance will be registered on one or more lists that are passed around during the guest lectures. Approved attendance of a minimum of 6 guest lectures yields 0.8 ECTS credits, which means that the attendance requirement is a grading factor. Therefore, cheating with the attendance list is equivalent to cheating on an exam. You are required to inform the course staff if you have to leave a lecture. Show respect to our guest lecturers by being on time to the lectures!

Kommunikation i kursen
All kommunikation sker genom Canvas med kursens lärare.
För snabbare svar är det bra om frågorna ställs på engelska.
