Master Construction Management and Engineering

The Master's program in Construction Management and Engineering (CME) is a two-year program that focuses on the management and engineering of construction projects. The program has three pillars:

1. Core courses (30 EC): Provides a solid foundation in construction management and engineering, including project management, system dynamics, and process modeling.
2. Specialization courses (35 EC) and elective courses (15 EC): Allows students to specialize in a specific area, such as construction management, engineering, or sustainability.
3. Graduation project (40 EC): Students work on a research project, often in collaboration with industry partners, to develop and manage information processes in construction projects.

Research Areas

The CME program is based on two scientific domains:

1. Urban/Building Sciences and Systems: Focuses on the design, construction, and management of buildings and urban environments.
2. Management and Innovation Sciences: Examines the management and innovation of construction projects, including project management, supply chain management, and innovation management.
