Civil Engineering professionals are major contributors to the design, construction, operation and maintenance of a wide range of infrastructure construction projects such as bridges, tunnels, dams, ports, highways and large buildings. Society's demands for infrastructure in areas of energy, transportation and water supply and treatment, coupled with increasing public concern about environmental issues, ensure continuing challenges to Civil Engineering professionals at all levels to provide innovative, cost-effective and environmentally sensitive solutions.

Civil Engineering commercial managers are responsible for all aspects of the financial administration and settlement of civil engineering construction contracts. Their role includes the production and settlement of claims and the performance of advisory and administrative functions, requiring a sound knowledge of contractual matters.

Construction Management is a diverse, dynamic and demanding profession. It involves a range of roles including management, planning and financial control of construction projects and facilities management and maintenance of completed buildings. Construction Management professionals make a major contribution to the construction, maintenance and refurbishment of a wide range of building types, from houses and offices to industrial and commercial buildings.

Project Managers are responsible for the overall control of projects and are concerned with delivering on time, within budget and to the appropriate quality. Organisations in many industry sectors are moving away from traditional forms of management towards a more project-oriented culture. This requires a combination of technical inter-personal skills for managing projects in diverse contexts.
