Profiles

Get support in choosing a master’s

As a student of the specialisation in Construction Management & Engineering, you can choose your direction within one of two unique profiles. You can focus on the technological aspects of construction management and engineering within the profile Digital Technologies in Construction or concentrate more on the organisational aspects thereof within the profile Markets & Organisation of Construction.

Profile 1 | Digital Technologies in Construction

The future of construction is digital. New technologies and innovations are being developed at a rapid pace, causing an imminent and wide-scale digital transformation of the construction industry. Think, for example, of the use of sensor technologies for monitoring the maintenance of roads or bridges, or 3D printing construction components, or even entire buildings. And what about the use of big data, Artificial Intelligence (AI), robotics and Building Information Modelling (BIM)?

How can you respond effectively to innovations within the construction industry, or even better: be at the forefront of implementing them? The profile Digital Technologies in Construction will help you to become an expert in managing and enhancing large construction projects using the latest technologies, thereby preparing you for the digital future of the construction industry.

Profile 2 | Markets & Organisation of Construction

The construction industry currently finds itself in a transition. Think of the need for sustainable building, pollution reduction, the adaptation of new technologies, and increasing social responsibility, to name just some important topics. But how do you respond adequately to these and other developments and requirements within the field, especially with the often overwhelming amount of parties being involved in one project?

To be able to reach the Sustainable Development Goals, as defined by the United Nations, by 2030/2050, there’s a great need for a long-term vision. In that sense, the real challenge is to reach an integrated approach, in which the focus lies on cooperation instead of competition. The profile Markets & Organisation of Construction familiarises you with the complexity of the market dynamics within the construction industry. It focuses on the analysis, management and organisation of the design, construction, and maintenance processes, as well as the coordination of the activities and roles of the parties involved.
