Course Instructor

Instructor and reference page

This page states who wrote and maintains the course. Students do not need it to learn the material — the course is designed for independent study. It is here because a public course should say plainly who is responsible for it.

Instructor
Name Engr. Dr. Muhammad Nadeem Majeed
Academic designation Professor
Department Department of Data Science (PUCIT)
Institution University of the Punjab, Lahore

That is the complete set of instructor details published with this course. No other qualification, publication, affiliation, or professional claim is made on this site, and none should be inferred from the course material.

Role in this course

The course is authored and maintained by the instructor named above. In practice that means:

  • Course content — lessons, labs, templates, and the capstone brief — is written and reviewed by the instructor.
  • Assessment instruments — quizzes, lab self-check criteria, and the capstone rubric — are authored by the instructor and published openly.
  • Maintenance — corrections and improvements are made in the public repository, where the history of every change is visible.

Published for self-study, and usable for taught delivery

The material is written so that a student can complete it without an instructor. It is also structured so that an instructor can run it as a taught course — the Teaching Guide explains pacing and delivery, and the Assessment Guide covers weighting and marking. Neither use is a prerequisite for the other, and the student path is the default.

Contact and enquiries

No personal contact details are published on this site. That is deliberate: this is a public repository, and an email address left in a page is collected by crawlers and used.

Use the channels the repository provides instead:

Nothing here is confidential

This is a public repository. The lab answer keys are published deliberately as a self-study reference, and they are not secure. No graded assessment should depend on students not finding them; for graded work, write your own variants with different scenarios or numbers.

How the course describes itself

If you are referring to this course elsewhere, these are the accurate, verifiable statements about it:

  • It is a free, public, self-study course in Software Project Management, aimed at undergraduate Computer Science and Data Science students and independent learners.
  • It is built around a student-first structure: thirteen modules over 32 sessions, supported by 25 labs, a full template library, and an integrated capstone.
  • It contains no fabricated references, statistics, or citations; every source named is a real, verifiable publication, and every invented figure in a worked example is labelled as invented.
  • It is not a certification and is not affiliated with, or endorsed by, any certification body, standards organisation, or vendor. Standards such as the PMBOK® Guide, ISO/IEC/IEEE 12207, and ISO/IEC 25010 are referenced as sources to consult, not as authorities the course claims to speak for.
