Course summary
Our Quantity Surveying BSc(Hons) course could provide the first step to becoming a qualified Quantity Surveyor.
The course has been developed to work alongside our Architecture, Architectural Technology and Construction Project Management degrees, to help you develop a strong understanding of professionalism within the construction industry. You’ll learn to work collaboratively in multidisciplinary teams.
Introducing you to aspects of Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Lean Construction, this surveying course provides the skills to enable you to manage the commercial and contractual aspects of the construction process.
Two crucial tools for today’s quantity surveyor are Lean Construction and Building Information Modelling (BIM). Lean Construction focuses on delivering minimum cost and maximum value for a construction project, looking at how the process of design, construction and end-use of a building is managed. BIM enhances Lean Construction, giving surveyors tools to manage the costs of materials and labour in projects. On the course, you’ll explore both areas to understand how you could deliver better value to clients.
