Career Opportunity

Career Opportunity

Project managers have a wide range of career opportunities in the building, construction, infrastructure, manufacturing, and mining industries. They manage projects for a variety of public and private sector clients.

Given the current shortage of project management engineering graduates and experienced project managers coupled with the huge investment in infrastructure projects internationally, this degree will enable recently qualified engineering graduates to improve their specialist technical skills.
