This programme equips graduates with the skills to become senior managers, policy advisers and decision-makers in any branch of the construction industry. It can also provide researchers and teachers in these subject areas with professional academic development. The programme is accredited by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and aims to develop students' knowledge and skills under two mutually supporting themes, for which the School of Construction and Project Management has an international reputation: The economics and finance of construction at project, firm and industry levels; The management of construction projects and enterprises; Construction is taken in its widest sense to include infrastructure and the supply chain.

The career options for graduates are varied, and many students go on to work for construction, engineering and design enterprises, professional consultants and commercial research organisations, and client enterprises with significant project portfolios such as retailers or banks. Graduates have been recruited by many of the UK's very best construction-sector firms. The MSc can be used as a foundation for MPhil/PhD research.

The programme develops an understanding of financial and other kinds of management within the context of the project, the project-based firm and the construction industry in its widest sense. There are some elements which can be put to use straight away while other elements of a strategic nature will prove useful as graduates move into more senior management roles. It is an attractive graduate qualification either for those trained in a technical discipline without previous economic training or those trained in economics or finance without previous exposure to construction.
