Construction Project Management BSc (Hons)

Accredited by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB), our Construction Project Management BSc(Hons) course provides the first step to becoming a qualified construction project manager. <br/><br/>The degree has been developed to work alongside our Architecture, Architectural Technology and Quantity Surveying courses, to help you develop a strong understanding of professionalism and collaboration within the construction industry. Two crucial tools for today’s construction managers are Lean Construction and BIM. Lean Construction focuses on delivering minimum cost and maximum value for a construction project, looking at how the process of design, construction and end-use of a building is managed. BIM enhances Lean Construction, giving construction project managers digital tools to manage projects. On the course, you’ll explore both areas to understand how you could deliver better value to clients. <br/><br/>**Why Study Construction Project Management BSc(Hons) at University of Huddersfield?** <br/>On the course – which has been ranked fourth in the UK for Construction, Surveying & Planning by The Guardian League Table (2023) – you’ll develop an understanding of what goes into global construction at each stage of a project. <br/><br/>You will collaborate with students across other related courses, providing you with an understanding of how to work in multidisciplinary teams, as you will need to do in industry. <br/><br/>Construction Project Management BSc(Hons), is part of a suite of courses that includes Quantity Surveying and Architectural Technology, and you could switch to one of the others at the end of the first year, if your interests change.
