Course summary
Do you want a professional career in the construction industry helping to shape the future of our towns and cities through the built environment? Would you like to work as a quantity surveyor, costing and managing building and engineering projects? Our Quantity Surveying degree has been designed and developed in consultation with industry representatives to meet the increasing employment needs within the construction and the built environment sector. On this course, you’ll develop the fundamental skills and knowledge needed for a career in quantity surveying, underpinned by an understanding of the broader agendas relevant to today’s building industry, including construction technologies and sustainability. This four-year course includes an initial full-time Foundation Year and offers an alternative route into university and gaining a degree. This route is for you if you do not have the necessary qualifications or don’t yet feel ready to begin degree-level study, or are returning to education and would like some support to get up to speed with learning in a university setting. The Foundation Year in Business will allow you to develop your academic skills and confidence as well as introduce you to key concepts, debates and skills that will support and inform your subsequent years of undergraduate study. Following successful completion of your Foundation Year, you’ll progress onto Year 1 of our Quantity Surveying BSc (Hons) degree. This course is subject to validation. You can still apply for this course while it is being approved.
