Abstract

A new model of a learning system for studying IT project management that satisfies modern requirements of competence-based education, statements of international standards of project management, students‘ demands, the necessity to employ information systems in the educational process, and legal and normative requirements of the Ukrainian educational system was substantiated. Shortcomings of the current state of university education in the field of project management were highlighted and necessity of integration of unique instruments aimed at the acquisition of practical skills and experience, development of creativity, and running the business into educational programme was substantiated. Interaction of classic university education as a source of professional knowledge and competencies with specialized practical educational programmes as sources of additional applied and business competencies is determined. Elements of this system are defined and characterized. Definition of educational modules-projects as elements of value creation for an academic programme that integrate traits of both academic disciplines and projects is offered. Role of a mutual IT project laboratory and an academic business-incubator, as well as principles of their functioning and interaction in formation of professional competencies of not only IT-project management students but of all the students of the Faculty of Information Technologies are substantiated. Results of implementation of the model offered showed its high effectiveness for both students of master programme in IT-project management and bachelor students of IT majors of the Faculty. The share of students involved in real IT projects while studying at the university as well as the share of students whose first job is closely connected with their major (project managers and developers) have increased. The model offered became a basis for the development of a multilevel competence model for students majoring in project management in the field of study ―computer science and information technologies‖.
