AbstractThis thesis paper aims at studying theories in project management that have been studied previously with their application first of all in the management of new urban areas in Vietnam in general and in the case study, Hung Phu New urban area project in Can Tho City. The thesis analyses the tasks of project management in Hung Phu Project with a focus on the management of time, costs, quality and risks in comparison with theories in project management, from which suggestions for better management tasks for new urban projects are proposed. From the case study of Hung Phu project, it can be seen that the task of time management was not done properly and effectively due to the problems in land clearance. This, in tum, affected the costs, products prices and the general quality of the whole project. The thesis proposes that a profound understanding of all legal documents related to the task of project management and to the specific project is of great importance. In addition, the management of time for the project can be seen as the key factor that brings effectiveness to the management of costs, quality and risks of each project. This requires that the work of land clearance should be paid more attention to as this is considered as the number one cause for any delays and lateness of a project.
