Infrastructure Engineering and Management MSc

What you will study

This course is for anyone interested in pursuing a career as an infrastructure engineer, or in a related field. We can:

• Develop your technical knowledge of infrastructure engineering within a social, economic, environmental and political context
• Enhance your understanding of the factors that affect and drive infrastructure planning and funding
• Equip you with the skills to assess the interdependent nature of infrastructure across different sectors.

You’ll acquire a sound understanding of the entire life cycle of infrastructure assets, the environmental impact of infrastructure projects, building information modelling (BIM), sustainable decision-making and formal asset-management techniques.

You’ll be able to use the knowledge you gain from this course for the creation of new infrastructure as well as the management of existing systems.
