ABOUT THE COURSE

Currently working in construction? Hoping to progress your career in the industry? This practical Construction Management HNC supports you to develop the knowledge and skills of the regulations, technologies and economic processes that facilitate the management of construction projects. The curriculum is delivered flexibly on a part-time basis, perfect for those who are already working in the industry to achieve a nationally recognised construction qualification.

You’ll gain a theoretical understanding of the principles that underpin construction management, as well as the professional skills required to perform this successfully.

To enable you to put what you learn into context, the course has close links with the industry. This has meant that students have had the opportunity to work on live project briefs and visit a number of active sites to interact with the construction project team.

You’ll have access to Solent’s built environment studio. This modern space has been developed to give students access to an environment which mirrors the feel and atmosphere of a professional studio. This enables students from various built environment courses to collaborate on multidisciplinary projects, just as they would in the workplace.

The programme also offers an element of flexibility, allowing students to study part-time to gain the HNC qualification alongside their busy careers. Upon successful completion of the HNC, students can progress onto the part-time BSc (Hons) Construction Management programme.

The course team have extensive industry experience, and are current members of the Chartered Institute of Builders (CIOB), Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), Association of Building Engineers (ABE), the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). The team also have a strong network of industry contacts, which has given past students access to guest speakers, live briefs and site visits.
