Location of University of Glamorgan
Our MSc Construction Project Management degree is practice-based and research-focused. The practice element adopts a problem-solving approach to complex and strategic issues that often arise on construction projects. You will get involved in case studies and field trips that may include an international visit (Shanghai, China 2010), though you will be expected to make a financial contribution towards the cost of any international trip. The research focus is supplied through research-active staff who are directly involved in development and delivery of the course, along with contributions from visiting research fellows, guest lecturers and professionals.
Possible Career Options
There is continued demand for construction project managers nationally and internationally. Our graduates have a very strong record in gaining employment and/or promotion. Graduates from predecessor courses have found employment with development, construction and building companies or government organisations and agencies, as well as commercial, management and consultancy firms.

How You Will Study
The course is delivered in three major blocks that offer an intensive but flexible learning pattern, with two start points each year – February and September. This course combines traditional lectures and tutorials with problem-based learning through workshops and site visits. Some modules are continuously assessed, while others use coursework and examination. Assessment methods also vary and include written reports and coursework, project work and presentations.
Most submissions will be your individual work, but some may involve teamwork assessment. The MSc element requires completion of a substantial dissertation based on your individual research. Part-time students have the option of a fast-track route by completing their dissertation over the summer at the end of their second year.
