BSc Construction Management
- Prepare for every challenge in a demanding and stimulating career
COURSE OVERVIEW
Construction Managers – and those who work in related professions – are accustomed to solving new problems almost every day. Being able to plan for every eventuality is one thing; dealing with it when it actually happens – and a project depends on your skills and abilities in order to stay on schedule – is something altogether more demanding. This course makes sure you have the knowledge to cope with the rigorous demands of the construction industry, and the confidence to tackle every problem that comes your way.
