PG Cert in Engineering specialisation in Construction Management

A specialisation is a focused collection of courses within a programme that allows you to gain deep, targeted knowledge in a specific sub-field. Normally these courses make up more than 50 percent of a qualification, some of which lead to registration within a certain field. They may be interdisciplinary, professionally oriented, or designed to meet accreditation requirements. Specialisations often restrict elective choice in favour of a clearly defined study plan.

Completed specialisations will appear on your academic transcript.

In Construction Management, you will use skills from a range of disciplines to apply general management techniques to the construction industry. Courses in this subject will help you to understand how quality assurance, human resources and risk management fit into the life cycle of a modern construction project.

The University of Auckland attained the Chartered Institute of Building's (CIOB) Accredited Centre status in 2014, making this the first CIOB-accredited masters degree in New Zealand. This acknowledges our high standards of governance, quality assurance and resource management. CIOB is the world's largest and most influential professional body for construction management and leadership.
