Construction Management

This course is designed for students who want to undertake a leadership role in the global building construction process.

With an emphasis on sustainability, technology and management, you’ll develop a wealth of knowledge and wide range of professional skills needed to successfully manage complex construction projects.

You'll develop the knowledge and confidence to analyse and evaluate the management and technical concepts, principles and theories associated with the development, production, refurbishment and maintenance of international construction projects.

Your studies will involve explorations into legal, economic, financial, political, technological, environmental, sustainable, and health and safety principles that impact construction processes.
