The degree is also offered part-time .
Students learn necessary work-related skills throughout.
The courses are flexible and give you the opportunity to develop interests in specialist subjects such as rural housing, housing design or environmental planning. The first year of the course includes a wide range of modules which introduce the field of housing and subjects which underpin the work of housing organisations, including housing finance, development and management and the legal system. In the second year you may exercise some choice between optional module courses related to housing, and carry out further study in greater depth of one of the main fields of housing. There is also a comparative module with an associated European field trip, and you will be introduced to research design and methods. You will also follow your own interests in housing by choosing a topic to research and write up in a substantial dissertation.
