Programme Aims and Objectives
  1. to upgrade existing construction related professionals with the knowledge of advanced civil engineering, cost control and management;
  2. to produce experts in all aspects of cost engineering and civil engineering;
  3. to provide a route of further study to graduates of construction related disciplines;
  4. to provide multi-disciplinary approach for civil, planning and construction professionals;
  5. to carry out research works in various related disciplines. 
Entrance Requirements

Applicants must satisfy the General Entrance Requirements and have one of the following criteria to be eligible for admission: 

(i) possess first degrees with honours accredited by Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE); or

(ii) possess first degrees with honours accredited by Hong Kong Institute of Surveyors (HKIS); or

(iii) possess first degrees with honours accredited by Hong Kong Institute of Architects (HKIA); or

(iv) possess first degrees with honours accredited by Hong Kong Institute of Housing (HKIH); or

(v) corporate membership of HKIE, HKIS, HKIA, HKIH or equivalent; or

(vi) possess first degrees in a construction-related discipline from a UGC funded tertiary education institution; or

(vii) possess first degrees in a construction-related discipline from a non-local institution recognised for this purpose by the University; or

(viii) have obtained an equivalent qualification or provide programme acceptable evidence of academic and professional attainments; or

(ix) applicants without the specified academic qualifications may still be considered for admission on a case-by-case basis if they are able to present exceptionally good alternative qualifications and possess substantial technical and management experiences.

Remarks: Students admitted via route (ix) should constitute only a small percentage of the intake and such cases would require approval by the College on a case-by-case basis.

Applicants whose entrance qualification is obtained from an institution where the medium of instruction is not English should also fulfill the following minimum English proficiency requirement:

  • TOEFL score 550 (paper-based test) or 79 (internet-based test); or 
  • Overall band 6.5 in International English Language Testing System (IELTS); or
  • Score 450 in the new College English Test (CET-6) of China mainland or a pass in the old CET-6 test; or 
  • Other equivalent qualifications.
Course Description

Each student must satisfactorily complete at least 30 credit units before the Master of Science degree is awarded. The total 30 credit units comprise of 15 credit units from required courses and 15 credit units from elective courses. Reference should be made to the programme document and the student handbook for the criteria of choosing electives. Students maybe allowed to switch between streams but they are not allowed to take two or more streams simultaneously.

Credit Unit Transfer

In general, application for credit unit transfer is normally not entertained. In case an application is considered fully justified by the Head of Department, the courses for transfer must be taken from master programme by the student within 3 years from the date of application of this transfer exercise. This arrangement does not apply to students registering for another stream after graduation from one stream. Criteria for granting credit unit transfer include the level, the duration and the content of the course.

Applications for credit transfer for work completed prior to entry to the University must be made in the first semester following the student’s admission, before the deadline set by the University. Applications for credit transfer for outside work completed after admission to the University must be made immediately in the semester following attainment of the additional qualification.

† Combined mode: Local students taking programmes in combined mode can attend full-time (12-18 credit units per semester) or part-time (no more than 11 credit units per semester) study in different semesters without seeking approval from the University. For non-local students, they will be admitted to these programmes for either full-time or part-time studies. Non-local students must maintain the required credit load for their full-time or part-time studies and any changes will require approval from the University.
