Project and Enterprise Management MSc

UCL (University College London)

This postgraduate degree provides students with advanced theoretical and practical knowledge of how projects and enterprises are organised, managed, and delivered within the built environment. With a strong focus on organisation, management, and economics, graduates are prepared for leadership roles in construction, infrastructure, and related sectors. Designed to prepare future leaders in the built environment, this course provides advanced knowledge of management principles relating to the organisation, management, and economics of construction projects and enterprises. You will explore how complex projects are initiated, developed, and delivered - not in isolation, but within the broader social, economic, and environmental context. Through a blend of theory and real-world case studies, you will gain the strategic and practical skills needed to manage successful construction and infrastructure projects from start to finish. Delivered at one of the world’s top-ranked universities and based in the heart of London - a global hub for finance, innovation, and infrastructure - this MSc empowers you with the skills and confidence to manage complex ventures from inception to delivery. What sets UCL apart is its fusion of academic excellence, real-world relevance, and interdisciplinary depth. Taught by leading researchers and practitioners from The Bartlett School of Sustainable Construction, this course enables you to critically engage with the organisational, economic, social, and environmental challenges shaping our built environment. You’ll gain both project management expertise and business insight, with a strong focus on the role of projects and enterprises in construction and infrastructure. The course offers strong industry engagement through guest lectures and real-world projects led by professionals, providing valuable networking and learning opportunities. With an internationally diverse student body and a curriculum focused on managing global projects, the course offers a distinctly global perspective. This Master's course is ideal for students with a background in architecture, construction, planning, surveying, legal and other associated built environment disciplines. It also welcomes students in fields such as management, sociology and philosophy who aspire to apply their knowledge within the built environment context. Those with other forms of industrial or government experience may also find the course relevant to their career development. This programme is also available on a modular (flexible) basis, with a duration of 5 calendar years.
