Quantity Surveying BSc (Hons)
Kingston UniversityPenrhyn Road, United Kingdom
Course overview
Learn the role of a quantity surveyor in the construction lifecycle Our links with industry and professional bodies ensure you’ll gain hands-on industry experience. First-year students benefit from private views of new developments in London, thanks to property management company CBRE. Executives from the company have also talked to students on issues such as letting, rents and services.
You also might take part in mock hearings and workshops. Most surveying students undertake a year's work placement, which contributes towards their professional training period. Placement destinations have included: DTZ Savills Franklin and Andrews Grosvenor Plc Jones Lang LaSalle Knight Frank London Borough of Wandsworth Montagu Evans WS Atkins Lambert Smith Hampton I loved my course mainly because my lecturers were really engaging and passionate about their subjects.
My hard work on the course was rewarded with a first-class honours degree, and an RICS award for outstanding work on my BSc (Hons) Quantity Surveying course. Although it is great to be recognised, this was only achieved through hard work. I would recommend Kingston University to anyone who is willing to make the effort to achieve success.
I now work for Faithful+Gould as an Assistant Quantity Surveyor and am actively working to become a Chartered Quantity Surveyor. Sam
