Programme overview

Wits University's official page for this programme lists entry requirements (a relevant honours degree such as BSc Hons Building, BSc Hons Construction Management, or equivalents in the built environment or commerce) but gives no overview text describing the programme's content. Applications are handled centrally by the Student Enrolment Centre, and the page directs applicants to the university's fees estimator and postgraduate funding portal rather than stating this programme's own fee.
