We regularly review our courses to keep pace with changing skills and employer needs. If a review leads to significant changes, we’ll contact you to explain what’s changing for the coming year.

## Teaching and Assessment

You’ll learn by doing, tackling real construction projects, visiting live sites, and working alongside industry professionals.

## [Button: How you’ll learn ]

Interactive lectures, hands-on workshops, and digital simulations like BIM and Virtual Reality bring theory to life. You’ll collaborate on problem-solving challenges, reflecting on your learning through dedicated reflection weeks and independent study. Guest lectures, employer-led workshops, and project mentoring connect you to the latest industry practice and trends.

Blended learning tools give you flexibility to study your way, while a final research-based dissertation lets you investigate real-world construction challenges, developing the skills and confidence to excel in your career.

In year two, you'll personalise your modules choosing from areas including AI, Data Analytics, Project Management, Green Economy, or Health & Safety, allowing you to future-proof your career and stand out in front of employers.

## [Button: How you'll be assessed ]

You’ll be assessed through real-world tasks that mirror professional construction practice, from planning, cost management, and digital modelling to contract administration and site-based simulations. Written reports, case studies, and portfolios develop your critical thinking and problem-solving skills, while group projects and presentations strengthen teamwork and communication.

Formative and summative feedback supports your growth, helping you refine your skills throughout the course. In your final year, a dissertation or work-based project lets you tackle a real construction challenge independently. All assessments are designed to align with professional standards, preparing you for a successful career.

## [Button: Placements ]

Practical experience is critical when working in construction and we build this into the curriculum from the start. We’ll take you to on-site visits so you can see things in action. And our black book of industry contacts sees students get experience on a variety of sites.

You can undertake a 70-hour summer placement, internship or civic project through our Applied Professional Experience module, gaining real-world experience.
