Study a Master of Construction – MConstr

The Master of Construction at Massey University is a unique degree. It focuses on building in-depth knowledge of specific aspects of construction. It is the only qualification in New Zealand that has specifically developed postgraduate construction courses.

 

This master’s qualification builds on Massey’s bachelor's degree in construction – the only one offered in New Zealand.
