BOOKS 100
A number of books on Project  Management, Management and Operational
Research are available in the library. These books cover all the topic listed above.
One book cannot be prescribed as Project Management is the application of
techniques already learned by the students in their courses on Business Research,
Managerial Accounting, Quantitative Analysis and Financial Management. Students
are expected to consult these books to strengthen their knowledge on the topics
covered by the course.
Each student is expected to learn functions of a software PROJECT2003 and
prepare a short report by using the same.
Some of the books studied by me are:
1 Modern Project Management ( Claude W. Burrill & Leon)
2 Project Implementation  ( Prasanna Chandra )
3 Management Techniques   Michael Armstrong.
