Number of bibliography and references – 48 As project-based work has recently become a common way of working and projects are a part of university life, it is crucial to study and investigate ways to improve international research and study project management.

The study analyses the competency of project managers’ leading international research and study projects funded by public authorities and seeks to find out the most important of them. For that reason, it is essential to implement a critical analysis of previous studies on the management of research and study projects and project management competencies to identify the perception of competencies needed to manage international research and study projects.
