If anyone has any questions about how the TPM course can enhance your engines leadership skills or how it might be applicable to the MEES program, feel free to get in contact with me. I will be co-teaching the TPM course from the Spring and I have previously delivered an engines version for the MEES program.

Engine Project Management (EPM) was an engine program specific core course, previously delivered by me as part of the MEES program. Feedback from previous cohorts who took EPM was that they gained a lot from the course and were able to apply learning from each week directly to the work environment. EPM has been replaced by a 3 credit Technical Project Management (TPM) course, offered as an elective for Spring 2021.
The TPM course is taken by other EPD degree programs and so is a more general project management class that prepares students with the theory, tools, techniques and methodologies to effectively plan and deliver complex projects. It is an essential skillset for anyone aspiring to engineering leadership positions. I will be co-delivering TPM, and if anyone on the MEES program wishes to sign up for TPM, as an adjunct to the course I can provide them with engines specific case studies, engine projects examples and guidance related to engines project management to help make TPM more relevant to their MEES program and application to your daily engines project work.
If you want to know more about the course, feel free to contact me directly – Brian Price, bjprice@wisc.edu
