📚About the Program

Construction management is the overall planning, coordination, and control of a development from inception to completion. Construction management is aimed at meeting a client’s requirements in order to produce a functionally and financially viable project in the engineering and architectural environment. Construction management involves the planning, design, production, adaptation, maintenance, restoration, conservation, financial and engineering management, evaluation and recycling of the built environment. The course is taught primarily through lectures, practicals, and tutorials. Significant emphasis is placed on project and experimental work with site visits and field trips making up an integral part of the coursework. The student is required to submit a project evaluation and development report, and a dissertation. The work placement will familiarise the student with work practices and procedures and provides them with the opportunity to observe the practical application of theoretical knowledge gained on their programme. The placement is supported by a member of academic staff in MTU together with a workplace mentor. The aim of the industrial placement is to introduce the student to structured employment in a relevant work sector and to develop the student’s understanding of the organisation, its procedures and technology.
