What do quantity surveyors and construction managers do?
Quantity Surveyors and Construction Management professionals work with clients, architects, engineers, consultants, and local authorities to complete construction projects.
Quantity Surveyors
Quantity Surveyors can budget, price, and financially administer construction projects. Typical roles include Consultants, Estimators, Contract Administrators, and Contract Managers. With experience, quantity surveying can lead into the fields of project management, commercial management, and dispute resolution.
Construction Managers
Construction Management focus on planning and managing time, resources, quality and health and safety. They are less focused on financial management than quantity surveyors.
Please note: If you want to study Construction Management, you need to be working in the construction industry in a supervisory capacity or will have the opportunity to work in a supervisory capacity during the duration of your study (which is four years part-time alongside employment). This option includes a 30-credit applied project based on a project you have managed in the workplace. |
