Course summary

Construction managers hold responsibility. They ensure a project meets the client’s needs, monitor costs, supervise workers, ensure safety and maintain quality. We designed our Construction Project Management (with Foundation Year) course to give you a broad range of skills so you can cope with a variety of situations on or off site.

The course starts with a foundation year to build your academic skills and prepare you for degree-level study. On successful completion, you’ll progress onto the Construction Project Management degree.

Graduates and employers say the placement year is highlight. We’ve built strong partnerships in industry and work to prepare you to make the most of your experience. Some students find they get offered a job before they graduate.
