Career

For graduates with a first degree in a built environment subject it can provide a competitive edge in a
fierce employment market. For architects, engineers and other professionals it can provide a move into
project management. The programme increasingly attracts those whose qualifications and experience lie
outside the field of construction, but recognise the career opportunities that exist for suitably qualified
Construction Project Management graduates.
