BSc Construction Project Management
About this course
Construction project management is the discipline that coordinates the people, processes, resources, and technologies needed to deliver construction projects safely, on time, and within budget. It sits at the intersection of technical construction knowledge and the managerial skills needed to plan complex operations, manage risk, procure works and services, and lead multidisciplinary teams. The challenges facing the construction industry are significant and evolving, from adapting buildings to a changing climate and achieving net-zero carbon targets to integrating digital tools that are transforming how projects are designed and delivered. At Sheffield Hallam University this part-time programme allows you to study alongside professional commitments, building your knowledge and skills systematically over time. You will explore key challenges facing the industry, including the development of resilient and sustainable buildings and the use of digital technology to manage and monitor construction projects. The programme includes a sandwich year and a work placement, giving you structured professional experience alongside your studies, ensuring that the learning is grounded in real-world practice from the outset. Graduates in construction project management are in demand across a wide range of employers, including main contractors, project management consultancies, client organisations, developers, and public sector bodies. Typical entry and progression roles include project manager, site manager, contracts manager, and programme manager, with routes towards professional qualifications and chartered status through bodies active in the built environment sector. The construction industry is a substantial and consistent employer across the UK, and professionals who can combine technical understanding with strong project management skills are well placed for long-term career development. Postgraduate study in construction management or project management is another path for those who wish to deepen their expertise.
