Defining what is a project is a vital part of project management. In this course, each week you will be discussing a project of your choice. For this discussion, you will choose your project topic. Select your project topic with care since you will use this same project for each week going forward.

You want to select a project that interests you and is relatable to your future career. You want to choose a project that ideally would have a project manager, a project team, many project tasks to perform, and could be completed within 3-6 months. This way you have enough breadth to your project to be able to complete all the subsequent future discussions.
