What MGMT 645 covers
The PMBOK Guide's opening chapters, its integration chapter and its quality sections 8.1 to 8.3 run through Modules/Weeks 1 to 5, with chapters 5 to 7 in Module/Week 7; Rose is read in order from chapters 1 and 2 to chapter 12, with one or two presentations each week.
The forums fall in Modules/Weeks 1, 4 and 5 with replies a week later; the charter is due in Module/Week 2, the project management plan in Module/Week 3, the quality improvement plan in Module/Week 6, the closeout report in Module/Week 7 and the faith integration paper in Module/Week 8.
This course explores the area of quality management, and is cross-referenced with PMBOK concepts. Topical coverage includes: foundations of quality, the contemporary application of quality concepts, quality paradigms, tools for managing project quality, and quality in practice. Current best practices in quality management will also be discussed.

Where MGMT 645 papers lose points
MGMT 645 work slips when a forum thread copies a definition of quality instead of testing it on a project, when the six-week project is too large to finish, when the improvement plan names three quality tools without applying them to data, and when the closeout narrates activities without comparing results to the charter.
Using a MGMT 645 sample well
The samples draw on Rose, the PMBOK Guide, Crosby, Juran and Godfrey, Deming, Dean and Bowen, Sousa and Voss, Kaynak, Schiffauerova and Thomson, Woodall, Anbari and colleagues, Keller and Alsdorf and Van Duzer.
MGMT 645 questions, answered
Which textbooks does MGMT 645 use?
The PMBOK Guide, chiefly its quality chapter, and Kenneth Rose's Project Quality Management: Why, What and How, read from its first chapter to its twelfth.
Does MGMT 645 use one project throughout the course?
Yes; the six-week project chosen for the Module/Week 2 charter carries into the project management plan, the quality improvement plan and the closeout report.
What quality tools does the MGMT 645 improvement plan need?
At least three of the tools in Rose's text, such as a flowchart, check sheet, Pareto chart or cause-and-effect diagram, applied to the student's own project.
