Construction Management degrees

Construction management is a professional service that provides the project’s owner(s) with end-to-end management of the project's program, cost, quality, safety, scope and function, from planning and design to construction and turnover. Construction management ensures the project owner maintains a successful project.

Construction managers are responsible for overseeing and coordinating construction projects. They work with architects, engineers, other construction professionals, and sometimes even government officials to ensure a project is completed on time and within budget. Construction managers must have strong communication and organisational skills and knowledge of building codes and safety regulations.
