Invitation to participate in NTU Final Year Project Survey on Construction Project Management

NTU is collaborating with IES to conduct research on ways to improve construction project management in Singapore. The research is headed by Assoc Prof Robert Tiong and Dr Teoh Bak Koon, together with a team of final year undergraduate students.

The team is looking to survey people with PM experience or a good understanding of what a PM does in construction. It would be especially helpful if you have worked in the Singaporean construction industry. This research would be beneficial to helping us raise the standard of PMs in Singapore, and your input would be of great help.

Click HERE to access the survey.

Your information will be kept confidential. Queries can be directed to Mr Jared Siew Chall (C190037@e.ntu.edu.sg) or Mr Nathanael Foo (NATH0012@e.ntu.edu.sg). Thank you.
