BSc Construction Management

About this course

Construction management is the professional discipline responsible for delivering building projects safely, on time, within budget, and to the required standard of quality. It encompasses cost planning and estimating, procurement and contract management, project scheduling, site supervision, health and safety management, and the leadership of multidisciplinary construction teams. The built environment sector faces consistent demand for professionally trained managers across residential, commercial, infrastructure, and civil engineering projects of every scale. At Wrexham University, this programme includes a foundation year, providing a structured academic preparation for students entering through a variety of routes. For those already employed within the construction sector, the programme is available part-time, and the programme leader can advise on funding possibilities through sector skills organisations. The degree develops your knowledge of construction technology, project management, law and contracts, cost control, and the regulatory and professional frameworks that govern the industry, building both the technical competency and the commercial awareness that construction management careers require. Graduates of construction management degrees work across the built environment sector in roles including project manager, site manager, contracts manager, commercial manager, and construction professional in private practice and the public sector. The academic qualification provides the foundation for professional membership with relevant bodies, and many graduates work towards chartered status as part of their ongoing career development. The combination of technical knowledge and managerial competency makes construction managers valuable across the full range of organisations engaged in building, maintaining, and managing the built environment.
