BSc Building Surveying

The BSc Building Surveying course at London South Bank University is a professionally accredited programme designed with input from industry experts. It prepares students for successful careers in construction and property by teaching important skills in technology, sustainable building, property law, and business management.

Students on the full-time course can gain practical experience through a work placement opportunity in their third year. The course is also available as an apprenticeship, offering a flexible pathway into the profession for people already working in the field.

When applying, applicants will need to submit a personal statement that explains why they want to take this course and includes any other important details about their education. A reference from a past teacher or employer is also necessary. Applicants can also choose to upload their CV with their application to show their work experience.

Grade Requirements:

• At least 120 UCAS points.
• GCSE in Maths at grade C or above (or reformed grade 4 or above).
• Alternative pathways are available through the partner institution, South Bank College, for those who do not meet these requirements.

English Proficiency:

• Minimum IELTS score of 5.5 overall, with no less than 5.5 in any of the four skills (reading, writing, listening, and speaking).

LSBU offers several scholarships to help international students with their studies. Students who have excellent grades, can be eligible for the Vice-Chancellor's International Merit Award, which gives undergraduates £2,000 each year. Another option is the Global Success Scholarship, which can give students up to £4,000.

There are also other awards available. If the student has already graduated from LSBU and is coming back for a postgraduate degree, they could get the LSBU Loyalty Award. The university also helps students find funding from other places, like the government-backed Chevening and Commonwealth Scholarships, which offer significant support for students studying for a Master's or PhD.
