BSc (Hons) in Building Engineering and Management 建築工程及管理學(榮譽)理學士
BLDG ENGG & MGT
Short Description
This programme provides an excellent opportunity for students who would like to pursue an education in building engineering and construction management. The growing building construction industry in Hong Kong and neighbouring regions requires graduates who possess highly specialised skills in technology, management, and communication. Our students face intellectual challenges that promote self-development and enhance their problem-solving skills. Our well-trained graduates are in great demand as professional building engineers and construction managers because they can easily adapt to the changing needs of the construction industry and have developed the necessary expertise to plan, coordinate, supervise, and control complex building projects.
All admitted students will embark on a Common Year One curriculum. Towards the end of year one, students can decide whether to continue with their initial choice or switch to another choice within the Faculty. Those who wish to change to another choice need to join a competitive process through a ranking assessment, which considers a combination of entrance qualification score, Year One GPA, and interview performance.
Remarks:
- Students will be awarded the following upon successful completion of the graduation requirements:
- BSc (Hons) in Building Engineering & Management
- BSc (Hons) in Building Engineering & Management
- The option of Secondary Major in Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics (AIDA) is available to the students of BSc (Hons) Building Engineering and Management. Admission to the Secondary Majors is on a competitive basis and is subject to a different credit requirement for graduation.
