Since earning his Associate’s Degree at the college, he has done quite well, going on to receive a BS Degree in Engineering Management and attaining several certifications in the industry. Starting out as an engineer in the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, Mr. Farkas eventually became a Project Manager there and branched out to the private sector. Throughout his career, he has managed projects in the U.S. and abroad. He is also the author of over 35 published articles and the book The Internet Project Manager: Practitioners Desk Reference. “What’s great about Project Management is that you can work in any state. The demand for skilled practitioners is high,” he says. “I have had the opportunity to compare LaGuardia with many other education providers. LaGuardia ranks in the top tier,” Mr. Farkas asserts. “The students are serious, dedicated and committed.” Phone: (718)482-7244 • E-Mail: acereg@lagcc.cuny.edu • Fax: (718)609-2074 11
