• Project Plan My College Career
Your best friend is simply brilliant. He has aced all of his courses since he started college while working full-time and heading three committees. However, now he comes to you completely distraught. He has somehow missed one of his graduation requirements and needs to attend summer school. You are very concerned as he is a diligent student and if he could misunderstand his graduation requirements then there is a chance you may have done the same. You want to make sure you are on track to graduate and decide that a Gantt chart is the perfect tool to help you succeed.
Project Focus
You have many requirements (milestones) to meet before you can graduate from your current college.
Create a Gantt chart in Microsoft Project or Microsoft Excel that takes you from your freshman year to graduation in your senior year. Be sure your Gantt chart includes all of the following:
• Each course you must take to graduate.
• The time frames required to complete each course.
• Dependencies among the course milestones (prerequisites)
• Any resources required to complete each course (you are the primary resource).
The minimum requirements for this assignment would be to include:
• At least 2 years (4 terms) of interdependent milestones (courses) with a full load (12 credit hours) of courses for each term
• Appropriate headings and course titles
o hide the start date series
o limit the chart date range to dates between the start date of the first milestone and the end date of the last milestone
o delete the chart legend
o use the correct values for the X & Y axis labels
Additionally, up to 15 points may be added for completing any/all of the following items (or including additional features/information not identified):
Include a complete 4-year program
Include multiple path alternatives
Color-code the courses by type (e.g., general education, business core, major core, electives, courses transferred from a different program, other courses already completed, etc.) with an appropriate key/legend
Use formulas & functions to calculate the start dates based upon the interdependencies of the courses
Include comments or notes regarding interdependencie, choices/options, additional criteria, etc.
Format the Gantt Chart in a visually appealing manner (but which still conveys the primary meaning of the chart)
