MSc in Built Environment Management
Key points
Our master’s course offers the opportunity to advance in the construction industry. Graduates of our master’s course have noted improvements in salaries, greater prospects for promotion, and the ability to transfer their skills across a variety of technical, managerial, and design careers. Recruiting companies such as Hays and Brightwater are confirming that the demand for construction professionals is increasing, and rising salaries reflect a shortage of properly qualified personnel.
