The College of Business and Economics in Maryland, US, is introducing a new track starting in autumn, says The Towerlight.

The project management and business analysis track is the result of a demand from the business community, according to Sharma Pillutla, chair of the department of e-business and technology management.

It's also timely because of the introduction of the department of e-business and technology, which was created at the beginning of the academic year.
