Modern construction projects are known for their complexity in design and speed of execution. They require significant utilization of resources such as materials, manpower, equipment and finance. Most of the projects are performed under conditions of scarcity of resources and suffers from uncertainty in their supply. Work delays will result in increasing costs since there is an intricate time-cost relationship for every project. The need for proper planning and management of construction can never be over-emphasised.<\/p>\n
The Bachelor of Science in Construction curriculum is designed to provide a solid academic base and professional expertise in the discipline of construction management, and to critically address the present and evolving needs of the construction industry. In order to perform successfully in the construction industry, students must develop an understanding of the technical aspects of construction while applying construction management practices and tools to maintain control and provide informed, optimal decisions. The programme focuses on the understanding of construction technology, construction management and production management processes. The programme also addresses the generic skills and capabilities necessary to compete in the employment market.<\/p>\n
The programme addresses a combination of engineering technology, construction techniques and management. It is designed to prepare graduates for managerial positions in the construction industry. At a personal level, the programme will inculcate professional and ethical approach that will foster the graduates\u2019 personal development, self-respect and career aspirations.<\/p>\n

All third year students are required to undergo a 24 weeks of industrial training at company operating in the construction industry approved by the coordinator and government departments. The work experience will be monitored by a lecturer in one industrial placement visit, a monthly report sent by the student back to the department, a daily diary and employer’s report.<\/p>\n \n- Final Year Project<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
A dissertation project has to be submitted by the student at the end of the final year. The project which is a culmination of interdisciplinary knowledge allows students to draw on it as they complete the project.<\/p>\n [\/restab][restab title=”Student Academic Assessment<\/strong>“]<\/p>\nStudent Academic Assessment<\/strong><\/p>\nA variety of assessment methods are used to match the learning outcomes of the programme and students learning styles.<\/p>\n \n- Examinations, tests and quizzes are methods for assessing breadth of knowledge.<\/li>\n
- Written assignments are used to assess not only factual and theoretical knowledge but also the ability to solve problems and articulate an argument \u2013 key transferable skills. In the final semester of the programme, a greater emphasis is placed upon the analysis, synthesis and evaluation of material.<\/li>\n
- Case study analyses and presentations are assessed for the reasoning skills and ability to apply learned material to real-life situation.<\/li>\n
- Design projects, reports and work samples are assessed to evaluate competence in practical skills and techniques.<\/li>\n
- Poster and oral presentations, video production are used to assess communication and presentation skills.<\/li>\n
- Seminar papers and critical reviews to assess ability to analyse and synthesise information.<\/li>\n
- Projects work assess ability to work independently and collaboratively, search and critically review relevant literature and to present findings in an academic manner in both written and verbal form.<\/li>\n
- Evidence based industrial training reports which document the students\u2019 performance in professional placement.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
