Course content

The aim of the PhD is to explore mega-projects and the construction industry in general in greater detail from both a UK and international perspective. The project will consider what constitutes project success and failure, the risk factors that need to be considered, how these can (and are) mitigated and lessons that can be learnt to develop a framework approach to improve positive construction and mega-project outcomes in future. Research outcomes will be the development of a new framework(s) applicable to the international and UK construction industries (including any regional variance), and dissemination of findings via reports and publications.
