Course summary
Construction project managers oversee the entire construction process, from resource distribution, timeframes and budget management, to managing staff and stakeholder relationships. We’ve shaped our popular, accredited Construction Project Management degree to include action-based and reflective learning approaches, that will help you learn how to plan, organise and control construction operations, and open up exciting career opportunities.
Build in-demand professional knowledge and skillsThis foundation year pathway is designed to give you a strong foundation in construction, surveying and design techniques, and the essential study skills so you are ready to progress. This pathway is an excellent route if you want to study the full honours degree, but don't meet the direct entry requirements. On successful completion of the foundation year, you will progress on to the full BSc (Hons) Construction Project Management degree, which is accredited by both the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB).During inspiring tutorials, you will explore the relationship between a building and its internal and external environments, understanding laws and regulations in the construction and property industries, construction management techniques and construction technology including BIM and CAD. As you progress, you will expand your subject knowledge to procurement and lean and offsite production management. In your second year, you will experience Constructionarium, anunmissable week-long residential project that puts your learnt theory into practice, so you can see how things work in the real world.Delivered by industry-experienced tutors and practitioners, you'll be educated to the highest industry standards, studying a range of tailored, industry-shaped modules that will develop your professional, technical and interpersonal skill set. With a focus on your future employability, you will experience group projects that will build your confidence and capabilities in team working, problem-solving and communication - all desirable skills for real-world built environment careers.
Get closer to industryLocated at the heart of one of the largest property and construction markets outside of London, Salford is a great place to study construction, with impressive development projects right on our doorstep. Delivered from our Peel park campus, minutes away from buzzing central Manchester, you’ll have opportunities to visit local construction projects, and receive industry guest lectures, building your professional connections and gaining real-world context for your learning.In Autumn 2022, we opened our new £65 million hub for science, engineering and the environment - and our new home for the built environment. Sustainability-designed and 100% electric powered, the building offers unrivalled teaching, learning and research facilities and provides exciting new spaces for industry collaboration.
