Bachelor of Technology in Construction Technology & Management

Construction technology and management is the field that keeps building projects on time and on budget. This degree combines engineering know-how with practical site management skills. At Koforidua Technical University, you can study this in the Faculty of Built & Natural Environment.

What construction technology and management covers

This field sits where engineering meets the building site. Programmes of this kind usually cover reading drawings, choosing materials, planning works, managing workers, and controlling costs and quality. You also learn how to use tools and software for scheduling and estimating, and how to keep a site safe and compliant with regulations.

How competitive is entry to this programme?

Entry into this degree is less competitive than many other engineering and technology programmes. That means if you have sound WASSCE results and an interest in construction, you have a realistic chance of getting a place. As with any technical programme, you should check that your grades meet the specific subject requirements for the year you apply.

What you can do after you graduate

Most graduates from construction technology and management programmes go into jobs where they plan, run, and inspect building projects. Common roles include construction site manager, project supervisor, project estimator, building control officer, or self-employment running a building firm. The skills also suit roles in real estate development and infrastructure maintenance.
