The course’s primary focus is on project management using the Building Information Modelling (BIM) process, which is the industry standard design, analysis, construction and operations management tool in the UK. You will learn the tools and processes, management standards and theories that you need to be able to sustainably manage a construction project in the digital age.

The course is all about balancing theory and practice – a mixture of hands-on building, manipulation and management of models, as well as consideration of the higher level analytical and critical thinking skills that come with Masters level education.

Lectures and workshops are taken by a mixture of research active academic staff and industrial practitioners, bringing cutting edge research combined with real world experiences into the classroom. We have strong links with industry including guest lectures from AECOM, the Kane Group, BAM Ireland and Graham Construction. Job prospects:

There is strong UK and global demand for BIM Project Managers. The skills that you will gain in modelling, simulation, analysis and information management will equip you help meet the skills shortage in this sector. Our BIM Project Management MSc Graduates are working in the UK, Ireland, Europe and across the world in roles including Digital Project Manager in London, Head of Construction for a major UK developer, Digital Construction Regional Lead for a design consultancy in Shanghai and Vice President at a Steel Construction company in Canada.

About you:

You could be from any construction related background, including Architecture, Civil or Structural Engineering, Construction, Construction Law. You will have a keen interest in BIM and digital construction. You may already have experience using BIM – hands on experience of BIM is not necessary for starting the course, but it can be useful.

Please Note:

Applications for this course received after 30th June 2025 may not be accepted. In addition, a deposit will be required to secure a place.
