Engineering Management

About the course

Build the engineering and project delivery skills that today’s construction and infrastructure employers are actively seeking and learn how to apply them in real world environments.

This degree is designed for ambitious learners who want a strong engineering-based qualification without following a highly mathematical civil engineering pathway but instead will acquire core engineering knowldege and practical engineering and construction project management skills, building confidence and professional capability in a supportive learning environment.

From the outset, you will explore the principles of engineering design of buildings and infrastructure, and how projects are planned, managed and delivered successfully. You will develop both technical understanding and management expertise, preparing you to operate at the point where engineering meets leadership and delivery.

Throughout the programme, you will focus on areas such as:


• Engineering principles



• Site engineering



• Project management



• Site surveying and site engineering



• Sustainable construction and engineering



Each year, you will take part in an interdisciplinary design project, working in teams with students from other construction, engineering and architecture pathways, on authentic industry challenges that reflect real professional practice. These projects grow in scale and complexity as you progress, helping you strengthen your leadership, communication and problem-solving skills alongside your technical understanding.

You will begin by building solid foundations in mathematics for engineers, construction technology and site engineering, before moving on to more complex construction and infrastructure projects and their management. In your final year, you will bring everything together through an applied research project, developing the critical thinking and analytical skills needed to tackle contemporary engineering management challenges with confidence.

By the time you graduate, you will be ready for entry level roles in site engineering and construction project management and infrastructure delivery across the built environment. With commitment and ambition, you will be well placed to begin a rewarding career shaping the buildings and infrastructure that support society.
