How much health and safety training is part of a construction management degree?
The amount of health and safety training in a construction management degree depends on the university, course structure and country. It may be covered in dedicated modules and/or within subjects such as site operations, project management and construction technology.
Key points
- Content may include hazard identification, risk assessment, safety law, occupational health, emergency procedures and safe systems of work.
- Assessment may include risk assessments, method statements, case studies, examinations or practical project work.
- Some courses may include site visits, placements or preparation for industry-recognised safety training; a degree does not automatically provide every professional certification.
Things to check
- Module titles, contact hours, certification arrangements and legal content vary by university, academic year and jurisdiction. Check the official course specification for details.
