Managing Your Project - welcome

Welcome to the first post in Managing Your Project - a blog for students everywhere who need help and advice in time management, independent study, project management, and generally planning complex work and keeping ahead of the game.

I'll be posting up help and advice about projects and personal planning, so please do check back here or Follow.

I've worked at the University of York, UK for the last 28 years in the Department of Electronic Engineering. I'm now Deputy Head of Department, in charge of teaching. Over the years I've worked with hundreds of project students, and have become fascinated by the common problems that they encounter when they have to take on a big project.

I decided to write a book aimed at all students undertaking large projects, such as final year research projects, dissertations, group projects, or indeed anything where large demands are placed on personal planning and organisation.

Managing Your Project: Achieving Success with Minimal Stress is published in print and on Kindle.

Check out the book. You can download a sample couple of chapters (including the full description of the book) for free by clicking on the Look Inside link here.
