A Project is temporary in that it has a defined beginning and end in time, and therefore defined scope and resources. And a project inique in that it is not a routine operation, but a specific set of operations designed to accomplish a singular goal. So a project team often includes people who don’t usually work together – sometimes from different organizations and across multiple geographies. Projects are separate to business-as usual activities, requiring people to come together temporarily to focus on specific project objectives. As a result, effective teamwork is central to successful projects. And all must be expertly managed to deliver the on-time, on-budget results, learning and integration that organization's need. More simply, a project is a piece of work which is not a process or an operation. It has a start, an end, and goals. Projects can be very simple, like organising a party, or very complex, like building a space rocket.

Project management, as an academic definition, is the application of knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to project activities to meet the project requirements. 

By simplier language, project management is the way a person organizes and manages resources that are necessary to complete a project.

Project management is the application of processes, methods, knowledge, skills and experience to achieve the project objectives. A project is a unique, transient endeavor, undertaken to achieve planned objectives, which could be defined in terms of outputs, outcomes or benefits.
