Program Description
This construction management programme provides students with the skills and understanding of principles, practices and ethics in the construction industry within a national and global context – as expected from a bachelor’s degree graduate. This course includes an optional work placement year, at no extra cost.
Throughout the course, students learn the core construction management skills they need throughout a project lifecycle, including the role of digital technology in the construction industry.
Digitization is shifting the way in which we build and operate assets. As a design or construction professional students are required to organize, analyze and understand increasing amounts of data - this change of role is highlighted by the current and past UK regulations and standards, for example the ISO EN 19650 series, the UK BIM mandate, BS PAS 1192 series and BS 8536 series.
This course consists of six main strands of knowledge across the three years – building information modelling and information management, procurement, technologies and modular construction, sustainability and management.
