This case is about the study of IT project management on a bachelor program of a business school. The students without special technical background shall understand what characterize the project and product requirements and how to manage the requirements. The results of the experiments with usage of whole cycle of the design thinking process and usage of some of the cycle phases into the different student groups are discussed.
