The construction sector, which has a constantly changing technical and managerial framework, requires professional structures that require consciousness and expertise by stepping out of the usual processes in the production process. In this context, the architects who will take a professional role in the sector are expected to have the knowledge to adapt to the developing technology with the understanding of construction management discipline. İKÜ Department of Architecture Construction Management and Technology Master’s Degree Program is based on educating professionals who have high level of management and technical expertise and use current building technologies effectively in the complex building.

For this purpose, the courses in the program are divided into two main areas: Project and Construction Management and Construction Technology.

Construction Management or Construction Projects Management has been a field of activity for nearly 50 years all over the world. Construction management is a generally accepted field not only in construction practice but also in higher education. It is important that the actors (architects, engineers, project managers, etc.) who will take a professional role in the sector have an understanding of Construction Management discipline. Raising tomorrow's leaders in the construction industry with high level of management and technical expertise are the objectives of the project and construction management.

In the construction sector, there is a need for educating professionals who are able to keep up with the ever-changing technology, have the knowledge of construction technologies and design, construction methods and building materials, have the awareness that less natural resources and energy should be consumed in order to leave a livable environment to the new generations, and who are conscious about energy use and environment.

Cost estimation, planning and control, Management and organization principles; Project and construction planning; Quality concept and quality management in Design and Construction; Construction methods, techniques, materials and structures; Construction reporting and documentation; Energy conservation in artificial environment are some of the research areas.
