Students take five courses in the first half-session including Land Law, Valuation Principles, Land and Property Economics, Building Technology and either Planning and Development or Rural Financial Management. In the second half session, students take four courses tailored to urban and rural options. Applicants interested in obtaining exemption from the professional examinations should apply, instead, for the 'fast track' programme described above. The normal entry requirement for the course is at least a Lower Second Class Honours Degree or equivalent. Mature students who do not meet the normal entry requirement but who have appropriate professional experience may also be considered.
Students take three courses in the first semester and four in the second semester.
These courses focus on core areas of land economy or on the development of research skills.
