MAUDE BRUNET WON IPMA YOUNG RESEARCHER AWARD

November 2017: International Project Management Association (IPMA) Young Researcher Award for 2017 was awarded to Maude Brunet for her doctoral research “The Governance of Major Public Infrastructure Projects”.

The research strategy was a multiple-case study within the Quebec government. Four major infrastructure projects in the front-end phase have been studied, which had to comply with the Quebec governance framework for public infrastructure projects. Using a set of approaches including non-participant observation during project meetings, semi-structured interviews and a documentation analysis, the main analysis strategy consisted of using grounded theory. Maude is a PhD Candidate in management, with a specialization in project management, at the School of Business and Management, Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM). Her doctoral research has benefited from funding by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and the ESG UQAM Chair in Project Management.
