Abstract
Before the establishment of the Czechoslovak Republic (1918) a field of activity called “Technical Management” was raised in Czech lands, including two directions, one concerned itself with the effect of work and technology on the economic life and the other with individual enterprises, their operation and possibilities of internal arrangement. This period reflected a marked interest in scientific management.
In 1924 Prague arranged the first International Management Congress. The Second World War caused stagnation in this field. The early 1960’s marked the beginning of the development of management methods in Czechoslovakia, among others the method of network analysis.
At present in the frame of progressive democratization of the society and independence of enterprises the education has to be interested in project management as a necessary condition of the development of the state.
