Professional Body Exemptions Holders of the HND may obtain substantial subject exemptions from relevant professional bodies. Graduates may apply for full corporate membership. The CIOB now recognises specialisms in construction management, project management, facilities management and commercial management. Careers Both the Diploma and Degree offer a sound basis for progress into a career in construction management or surveying. Our graduates are much sought after by the construction industry and other employers seeking management skills.
Some students choose to progress to further study, for example, for a higher degree.
There is, therefore, the opportunity for students to transfer between these courses at the mid-point of Year One, giving important added flexibility to students who are not totally sure of which course they wish to study, upon entry into the University Commonality with the Quantity Surveying and Building Surveying courses continues throughout the course, but to a lesser extent as undergraduates progress through levels 2 and 3. At level 1 there are core modules in Construction Technology, Materials, Environmental Sciences, Contemporary Issues in the Built Environment, Legal Studies, Documentation and Estimating, Economics and the Built Environment, and Surveying. This involves exercises in land surveying and other related activities. All students undertake an interdisciplinary project. On the degree course electives are available in a range of subject areas linked to the built environment.
