Abstract : Construction projects, at King Abdulaziz University (KAU), are initiated in dynamic environments resulting in circumstances of high uncertainty and risk, which compounded by demanding time and budget constraints. On the other side, managing risks in construction projects has been recognized as a very important management process in order to achieve the project objectives in terms of time, cost, quality, safety and environmental sustainability. However, until now most research has focused on some aspects of construction risk management rather than using a systematic and holistic approach to identify risks and analyze the likelihood of occurrence and impacts of these risks. Therefore, this thesis identifies and evaluates the risks associated with the construction projects at KAU from different points of view. This thesis addresses potential risks in time, cost, quality, and environment for KAU construction projects. Data were collected through a questionnaire distributed to the project parties. The thesis shows that delay due to excessive approval procedures and absence of professional pre-planning studies for project by other participants are significant risks. The thesis recommends adding the safety factor as one of the project objectives to the future study.
