We teach the principles of project management – the distinct discipline of working to agreed deadlines, starts and finishes on a given project – with an awareness of the global challenges facing the industry, not least the need to make construction sustainable.

On this programme, you will learn to apply management methods to design, engineering and construction problems, and be able to plan, monitor and control construction projects by integrating technical knowledge with leadership, commercial and managerial skills.
