This programme develops the postgraduate’s knowledge and skills through modules which link theories and practices associated with Building Regulatory Compliance (BRC).
This programme develops the postgraduate’s knowledge and skills through modules which link theories and practices associated with Building Regulatory Compliance (BRC). The professional will be equipped with the knowledge, skills, and competence to holistically evaluate regulatory compliance techniques in terms of traditional command and control regulation.
The aim of this course is to provide learners with specialised knowledge and skills in construction project management. It is particularly insightful to those in a project management role who wish to enhance their existing skills and new tools and knowledge applicable to their current role. The course is also of great value to those who wish to move into the area of construction projects.
Structural Engineering is the science and art of designing civil engineering facilities so that they can safely resist the forces to which they may be subjected. All structures from bridges to buildings, harbours to airports, must be able to meet these requirements. Structural Engineers aim to design these structures with safety, economy and elegance.
The course is taught primarily through lectures, practicals, and tutorials. A significant emphasis is placed on project and experimental work with site visits and field trips making up an integral part of the coursework. There is a continuing regional, national and international requirement for structural engineers with a knowledge of construction. The work placement in year 4 will familiarise the student with work practices and procedures and provide them with the opportunity to observe the practical application of theoretical knowledge gained on their programme.
This course allows professionals from a range of construction backgrounds to focus their skills and knowledge into much needed expertise in construction contracts management, embracing the new forms of government contract (GCCC), RIAI, Design /Build contracts and on-line procurement methods while creating expertise in the administration and management of contracts.
Studying this Masters, you will cover a wide range of topics not traditionally covered in undergraduate degrees; the programme includes specialist modules in structural dynamics, bridge engineering, structural design and professional engineering. You will also learn how to work in a multidisciplinary setting through combined modules with Architecture students.
