Course description
We designed the course in collaboration with industrial partners such as Henry Boot and Gleeson. It produces professional construction managers capable of completing projects quickly, on budget and to a high standard.
It gives detailed knowledge of the specialist areas of construction management and is invaluable if you want to advance your career in the construction industries.
The course develops your understanding of present-day construction, with an emphasis on problem solving. We provide a balanced curriculum of up-to-date technological and managerial methods and traditional approaches to construction.
You gain a good all-round knowledge of construction management and the course’s flexibility allows you to concentrate on areas that are of most interest to you or your business. This equips you to manage and supervise the entire construction process, from information technology to project administration, and to understand and take on specialist roles.
