A level of management expertise is critical to landing a leading role in construction.

MSc Construction Project Management at UWE Bristol equips graduates with the theoretical knowledge and practical and technical skills to manage people and projects within the construction industry.
Successful project managers need to be able to think, lead and act in an uncertain and dynamic business environment, have access to the latest information, understand the appropriate techniques and systems, and have the expertise to apply these to market needs and business opportunities.
Because the course is delivered entirely online through distance learning, you'll be able to fit your studies around other commitments. There's no obligation to live locally as your learning and assessment will take place online. Learning materials and opportunities for peer interaction are provided weekly, but you have flexibility as to when you interact.
You'll be taught by widely-published academics, who'll bring the benefit of their own industry experience as well as feeding the latest research directly into your learning.
It's suitable for professionals already working in the construction industry who aspire to senior management positions. Additionally, it is suitable for undergraduate (honours) students in related subject areas, looking to progress to study a managerial and technical postgraduate programme.
