Hey guys! Help me review this please. Thanks
During the course of my undergraduate studies, the curriculum of Building had exposed me to various components of the construction industry and the challenges ravaging the industry, which helped me broaden my horizon. However, I came to realised that my undergraduate degree had given me only glimpse of knowledge in some course. For instance, modules such as the Building Information modelling (BIM), lean construction, sustainable construction, economics and financial management are some of the areas I seek to explore in my post graduate studies in order to realise the growth potential of Nigeria in terms of infrastructure provision for sustainable development. That is the reason why I choose to study construction management in my post graduate studies in the UK.
Considering myriad schools offering post graduate degree in construction management in the UK. The three universities that cut my attention were university Loughborough, university of Reading, and university of Salford for their reputable achievements, high students satisfactory rate, high research quality, collaboration with industries, erudite scholars.
Loughborough university is known for its great heritage, being the oldest in the UK and the 2nd in the world, which is always regarded as one of the best universities in construction managements has become my first choice. Loughborough has an excellent and well planned modules and 87% of her school research scored as internationally excellent; coupled with strong collaborations with the industries, state of the art teaching facilities, 3000 m2 open-plan laboratory, made it perfect destination for me to achieve my ultimate goal of becoming a world class researcher who will be deeply involved in finding solutions to challenges facing the industry.
My second choice, University of Reading, is multidisciplinary in nature with staff having extensive experience in teaching research, consultancy, visiting lecturers to organisations and universities around the world. The module prepared for this course is well designed and diverse. Moreover, their world class facilities such as their computer lounge equipped with the latest digital technology and software including the BIM, 3D laser scanning, building energy stimulation etc. made them impeccable for potential researchers like I. This will really help me in realising my long time objectives.
Salford university, my third choice, is considered among schools with the highest number of international students, that allow students from different countries to meet, interact, and share ideas. Their modules are planned and developed in such a way to synergised what is learned in class and what exactly is in the industry. Similarly, it provides hand-on training in the use of state of the art software tools and technique. This will certainly teach me how to successfully plan and organise complex construction project and a lucid understanding of how international market operates, learn how to diagnose cooperate problems and manage multitude of areas including people, finance and risk. These are major areas where a country like Nigeria is still lacking which I seek to explore.
why I chose those 3 universities
