Subject

Construction management

**Course overview**: This construction management programme provides you with the skills and understanding of principles, practices and ethics in the construction industry within a national and global context - as expected from a bachelor’s degree graduate.

Throughout the course, you learn the core construction management skills you need throughout a project lifecycle, including the role of the circular economy and digital technology in the construction industry.

Digitisation is shifting how we build and operate assets. As a design or construction professional you are required to organise, analyse and understand increasing amounts of data - this change of role is highlighted by the current and past UK regulations and standards, for example the ISO EN 19650 series, the UK BIM mandate, BS PAS 1192 series and BS 8536 series.

This course consists of six main strands of knowledge across the three years - sustainability, building information management, procurement, technologies and modular construction, and construction management. These are informed by one of the most research-active teams in the University. Examples include ongoing projects and collaboration with successful knowledge transfer partnership projects with companies such as Norscott, Vikander, Ryder Architects, Unasys, Spa Architects, and organisations such as the Qatar National Research Foundation with the Qatar BIM project, which developed a whole lifecycle process assessment for the Qatar Construction Industry in using BIM.

This degree is accredited by the Chartered Institute of Building, giving you full academic exemption. Once you have gained three to five years of relevant work experience you may apply for Chartered Membership status without the requirement for an individual assessment.

**After the course**: A construction management degree provides you with a range of skills and knowledge, including construction technology and the role of digital technology in construction, teamwork and problem solving, which are highly valued by employers.

The construction industry is one of the most important contributors to the UK economy and provides excellent career prospects for our construction management graduates. As the construction of buildings and infrastructure projects are expanding and there is a need for upskilling the workforce and embed digital technologies, there are numerous opportunities for you to develop areas of particular expertise relevant to your interests.

The Longitudinal Educational Outcomes dataset combines HRMC earnings data with student records from the Higher Education Statistics Agency.

While there are lots of factors at play when it comes to your future earnings, use this as a rough timeline of what graduates in this subject area were earning on average one, three and five years later. Can you see a steady increase in salary, or did grads need some experience under their belt before seeing a nice bump up in their pay packet?
