Besides learning of general project management theory studying of narrow, but deep aspects of project management provides a student with unique knowledge, which permit to create specific career trajectory. Thus, getting knowledge in the sphere of innovation project management enhances well-rounded competences of students. Innovation project management (IPM) can be separated out as an independent discipline. Though IPM is based on conventional project management methodology, theory of innovation management is strongly connected with this discipline. The way of innovation projects' planning, implementation and closure essentially depends on type of innovation.
