10 PhD Programmes in Construction 2024/2025

Studying construction can lead to a career in building new buildings, repairing old ones or inspecting such work. This field also includes building roads, bridges and recreational facilities. Students may expect to spend some time studying proper use of materials and engineering.

The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
