I feel the Engineering Project Management: Risk, Quality, Teams, and Procurement Course is quite useful and absolutely valuable, which is the third exceedingly important part of the Engineering Project Management Specialization, I do love it, and it is definitely worth our learning. Some Courseramates might only learn the first or the second course of this Specialization, however, what I do want to tell you is that the three Courses make up a whole, and eventually form a complete Project Thinking.

Some people might think that this Engineering Project Management Specialization can be only applied at work or in business, however, its most important value is to strengthen our thinking and thoughts, to enhance the ability to think about the outside world, to help us to do comprehensive thinking about our life, to take a more holistic view of the problems or troubles, to be more positive about unknown and sudden risk or fear, and ultimately to be a better people, I just think so.

Overall I enjoyed the course. I liked that everything was straight forward. There never was any confusion on assignments, which is always a plus with online courses. I’ve taken online courses where assignments would be confusing and the teacher was slow to respond to emails. The one thing that I disliked was that you were not able to look at an assignment after the due date. If you weren’t able to turn in the assignment on time you weren’t able to look at the assignment to try to turn it in late. Despite that, I enjoyed the course.

Initially, It was difficult to adjust to the schedule of the course but I was able to come up with a plan that could allow me follow along and complete all the lessons and assignments in the course. Over all this was an excellent course from start to end.
