dc.description.abstractThis paper critically reviews Bachelor of Science degree programmes in Land Economics (BScLE), Construction Management (BScCM) and Quantity Surveying (BScQS) offered by the Department of Construction Economics and Management (DCEM) at Makerere University in Uganda and their curriculum quality assurance practices in order to meet industry requirements. Teaching relevant course content, employment of highly qualified and experienced academics, implementation of high quality assessments, evaluation of lecturers and subjects, receiving student feedback, prioritization of research output and publications, creation of strong industry ties, provision of good learning and teaching facilities are main curriculum quality assurance practices implemented by DCEM at Makerere University to graduate high quality professionals. In addition, Makerere University’s management gave the DCEM adequate support to implement the good curriculum practices to ensure that high quality property and construction education is delivered to the industry and students in Uganda as well as internationally. Findings of this study and review will support the promotion of good property and construction education quality assurance practices at universities in Uganda and internationally to ensure that well prepared property and construction professionals are continuously produced for the property and construction industry. The work also forms part of the contribution to strengthening tertiary education management.en_US
