COURSE DESCRIPTION
Meet the emerging need for better management of construction processes with Bond’s combined master’s degree in construction practice and project management.
Graduate with a uniquely combined and valuable understanding of the construction process together with the structural principles of both construction practice and project management including successful management of scope, time, cost, risk, human resources, quality, procurement, stakeholders and environmental impact, and their balanced integration. The multidisciplinary skills gained during your studies are carried beyond the degree to enhance communication with and management of project team members from diverse backgrounds.
Akin to other enabling degrees like an MBA, a degree in project management opens the door to wider career opportunities now and well into the future.
Gain an edge by developing specialised knowledge related to the delivery of complex buildings and unlock new and diverse job opportunities in the construction industry with this robust combined degree.
The combined Masters degree in Construction Practice and Project Management enables students interested in being a construction project manager to gain specialised knowledge related to the delivery of complex buildings. Construction was the first and is still the dominant sector of the economy where project management is practised. It is also an international endeavour, where the cost and complexity of major buildings is ever increasing. Therefore, a combined understanding of the construction process together with the generic principles of successful management of scope, time, cost, risk, human resources, quality, procurement, stakeholders and environmental impact, and their balanced integration, is most valuable. Construction project managers demand salaries at the top of the professional range, and may be involved in commercial, residential, industrial and civil developments, including in the energy and resources sector. Students graduate with a Master of Construction Practice and a Master of Project Management upon completion. This degree is internationally recognised by the Project Management Institute (PMI).
What can you do with your degree?
Construction is a fast paced and evolving industry. As one of the largest economic sectors, the construction industry seeks graduates with distinctive skills, knowledge, and practical experience across a variety of fields and by supplementing your knowledge and understanding in construction with a high-demand skillset gained from project management will broaden your professional opportunities and help you stand out in your career.
Graduate equipped with the necessary knowledge to deliver complex construction projects in career pathways include building and construction management, contract administration, site management, facilities management, building services, quantity surveying, property development, project management, cost management and general management.
