<p style="margin-right:0in;margin-left:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">

This panel will explore the convergence of Project Management, Systems Engineering, and Engineering Management, analyzing how these disciplines complement each other in both industry and academia. The discussion will address the value of certifications such

 as PMP, CSEP, ASEP, and PgMP compared to university programs and how these credentials can be integrated into higher education. Additionally, we will examine the impact of artificial intelligence and digital transformation on project and systems management,

 as well as the growing importance of soft skills in technical leadership. Other key topics include bridging the gap between academia and industry, the rise of micro-credentials and modular learning, and the need to incorporate sustainability and resilience

 into the training of engineers and managers.</p>

We would like to invite you to be a panelist and also encourage you to submit a paper. One of the panelists will be Mr. Lambert (the founder of PMI), and the moderator will be Dr. Tim Kotnour (Director of our Engineering Management programs), making this an

 excellent opportunity to discuss these topics.</p>
