Graduate Diploma in Quantity Surveying at Anglia Ruskin University
Sharing many common themes with our other Graduate Diplomas in the surveying disciplines, Quantity Surveying provides a fast-track towards gaining qualification as a Chartered Surveyor. What makes this course different is its focus on the financial and economic aspects of the built environment.
Within this context, the main aims of the course are:
to allow you to progress to the work-experience stage of the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors qualification
to provide an in-depth understanding of the technical, economic, legal and organisation aspects of quantity surveying
to give you a firm understanding of the requirements of professional practice and to equip you with a range of relevant skills.
The skills of the quantity surveyor are in areas of project management, procurement and negotiation in legal or contractual issues. The value of these skills is reflected by the presence of a great many quantity surveyors in senior roles within the construction and development industry.
When you graduate you will be able to:
demonstrate a command of the language, knowledge, theories and practical skills used in quantity surveying
use this knowledge to find solutions to a range of technical, economic and legal surveying problems
display a good working knowledge of the major issues and contemporary theories in quantity surveying.
This is an intellectually challenging course designed to provide you with a fast-track toward gaining qualification as a Chartered Surveyor. It’s about giving you the skills you’ll need to succeed in professional practice and it’s about giving you the confidence to put those skills to good use.
