It is a nine-page document and it is not easy to comment through this discussion group. A formal review option should be best value addition to this document. My key observation and my input are follows:
- Considering the modern education system (even medicine - some university admit through GAMSAT - Graduate Australian Medical School Admissions Test) and no perquisite on any subject. On the basis an admission test examination is the best way forward. Alternatively Universities may admit based on a Bachelor Degree with scoring (3)
-10 subjects with major thesis or 12 subjects with minor project should be considered
- Cost Engineering Required / Core Courses
(8 courses / 24 credits from this list)
• Cost Estimating - to be Cost, Time and Resources Estimating Principles (of course later one finally leading to cost)
• New subject- Engineering Economics (covering budgeting, project evaluation and approval etc)
- Project Management
- Planning (which automatically include Scheduling)
• Project Procurement Management (automatically include Contracting, construction law, contract administration and forensic claim, Alternative dispute resolutions)
• Project and Contract Administration -delete
• Fundamentals of Project Management -delete - System Engineering
• Project Controls (Based on EVM and RP 29R)
• Decision and Risk Analysis - may change merely to Risk Engineering
-Project Accounting and Financial Engineering
- Total Cost Engineering (Avoid management)
- Asset Management
• Performance Measurement and Data Analytics (Change the Data Analysis to Reporting)
Depending of the response I will add more.
