Bachelor of Construction Management (Honours) S346

Develop an in-depth understanding of the business of construction, from economics and law to technology. Deakin’s Bachelor of Construction Management (Honours) equips you with market-ready skills for construction management, quantity surveying and property development. Work confidently across projects large and small, and with a strong focus on practical learning, you will develop the initiative and ability to hit the ground running.

Undertaking industry placements will help you kickstart your professional experience while building professional networks, technical knowledge and skills. Collaborate with Deakin’s architecture students to gain a sound understanding across both disciplines. This experience prepares you for the real world and ensures you graduate with the well-rounded and adaptable skill-set employers are looking for.

Dream of running diverse building projects with a professionally recognised qualification?

This degree is professionally accredited by the Australian Institute of Building (AIB), Australian Institute of Quantity Surveyors (AIQS), Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) and the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS). That means your qualification is recognised for practice in over 50 countries, providing a global passport for work in this field in Australia and overseas.

You will learn to apply construction management strategies and best practices to new and existing buildings. Your education covers areas including:

• building economics and law
• building practice
• building technology
• measurement and estimating
• project management
• digital construction
• sustainable built environment

Learning from academic staff who understand the industry means your classroom is a hub of the latest ideas, techniques and approaches to construction management - which you can then test out in our purpose-built studio and workshop. You will also benefit from our teaching staff’s professional networks, which means you can start building your own connections long before graduation. We take graduate employability seriously. You will be workplace-ready through opportunities for placements, site visits, international study tours, exchange and guidance from Deakin’s leading careers service, DeakinTALENT.
