The CPFM replaced the Construction Management and Economics Research Group (CMERG) which had existed in the Department since 1991.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The reasons for setting up the CPFM include:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>To enhance the Department&#8217;s ability to host research in project management and construction law because of its physical structure, equipment and academic culture in terms of its complement of academic staff members.<\/li>\n<li>To disseminate research findings in project and facilities management and construction law coming from a hot-bed of research activities and a gathering of great research minds.<\/li>\n<li>To provide a ballast for a research tradition in project management and construction law as well as the continuity needed to establish a healthy research community.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>It was envisaged that the Centre would<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>create a reputation for the Department as having research expertise and experience in project management and construction law;<\/li>\n<li>attract good research students and scholars to join the Department of the Built Environment to pursue a research degree<\/li>\n<li>attract external research funding<\/li>\n<li>develop and conduct Executive courses for the industry<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\t<h4>The main activities of the CPFM are:<\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li>Executive development courses\/programmes<\/li>\n<li>Facilitation of research by its members<\/li>\n<li>Conduct of research seminars and conferences<\/li>\n<li>Conduct of executive development programmes, both at the NUS and in the premises of the client organisation<\/li>\n<li>Serving as a depository of important books and other publications on project management and construction law.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>\n\t\tActivities\n\t<\/h2>\n<h2>\n\t\tCollaborations\n\t<\/h2>\n\t<p>The CPFM undertakes a number of joint activities with several similar organisations in good universities globally. Some examples of these collaborative activities include:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Joint research with several universities including the University of California, Berkeley, USA; University of Hong Kong; University of Reading, UK; Seoul National University, Korea; and Tsinghua University, China.<\/li>\n<li>Joint research seminars with:\n<ol>\n<li>University of Hong Kong, Loughborough University, UK and University of Technology Malaysia; and<\/li>\n<li>Seoul National University, Korea<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<li>Executive professional development programme with University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\t\t\t\t<p>CPFM is looking to further develop relevant research collaborations. We are especially looking to develop in areas relating to our Executive Courses. We welcome collaborations from industry partners who are looking to work together to further improve their staff expertise in various areas in the built environment.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"mailto:bdggym@nus.edu.sg\" target=\"_self\" role=\"button\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tContact Us\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n<h2>\n\t\tPEOPLE AND RESEARCH UNITS\n\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/dbe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2023\/01\/DrGohYangMiang-circle.jpg\" alt=\"Dr Goh Yang Miang\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"2315\" width=\"2315\" title=\"Dr Goh Yang Miang\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n<h2>\n\t\tDr. Goh Yang Miang\n\t<\/h2>\n\t<strong>ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR<\/strong>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\nDirector at Centre for Project and Facilities Management, National University of Singapore.\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/dbe\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2023\/01\/Vincent_Gan-circle.png\" alt=\"Dr Vincent Gan\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"619\" width=\"619\" title=\"Dr Vincent Gan\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n<h2>\n\t\tDr. Vincent Gan\n\t<\/h2>\n\t<strong>ASSISTANT PROFESSOR<\/strong>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\nDeputy Director at Centre for Project and Facilities Management, National University of Singapore.\n\t<p><strong>Founding Co-Directors:<\/strong>\u00a0Associate Professor Philip Chan and Professor Willie Tan<\/p>\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/dbe\/cpfm\/sarru\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/a>\n\t\t<h2>SARRU<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<p>Safety and Resilience Research unit<\/p>\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/dbe\/cpairu\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/a>\n\t\t<h2>CPAIRU<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<p>Construction Performance Analytics and Innovation Research Unit<\/p>\n\t<p><strong>For further information, please click on the links below:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/bdg\/research\/research-clusters\/\">Research Thrusts<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/bdg\/research\/research-centres\/centre-for-project-management-and-construction-law-cpmcl\/research-highlights-completed\/\">Research Projects<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/bdg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2019\/12\/CPFM-activities_0817.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Events<\/a><\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CPFM Homepage About the Centre Activities Collaborations People Our Vision To be a leading international Centre for research and consultancy in Project and Facilities Management and Construction Law.
