Building Surveying (Surveying Graduates)

Buildings are an integral part of all of people lives; homes, schools, work places and public places wouldn't exist without building surveyors. The Master of Science in Building Surveying (Surveying Graduates) (12-month) will teach students the underpinnings of building construction, as well as how to maintain and use them sustainably. Being a building surveyor is very varied work; much of the job is undertaken on site visits (it's not just a desk job) and no two days will be the same.

This program is for those involved in the maintenance, refurbishment, alteration and extension of existing buildings, or in project management and design for public bodies, commercial organizations and professional practice firms.

Students coming to the London South Bank University from a non-construction/surveying background will be taught alongside those who have completed an undergraduate surveying degree and who are already working in the industry. As a result, the student cohort is diverse and contains a wide range of viewpoints. The University had students with backgrounds as diverse as drama, law and science.
