Abstract

Teaching project management to Architecture design students is quite challenging. Project management education on university level has to equip students with core competencies, the so-called 21st century ones, which should enable them to cope with market needs. In addition, it has to make full use of the architecture students existing skills. Thus, this paper aims at evaluating the role played by project management education towards the enhancement of the competencies of Architecture students. To achieve the aim of this paper, a survey questionnaire was applied on senior students who have been taught the PM course for 8 successive years at Ain Shams University. Students who attended the course since 2010-2017 participated in the survey, where they had to assess the course after 6 to 1 year(s) of graduation. The number of respondents was almost 300. All participants reported mostly positive impact about the teaching methods in the PM courses. Among the core skills that have been realized through teaching the course were critical thinking, communication, collaboration and creativity.
