a degree in building surveying. yay or nay?

anyone applied for or doing a degree in building surveying or construction management or anything like that? any advice or comments really would be appreciated.

this year i applied and have an offer from brunel to do industrial design and technology but not sure if its for me. as in im a bit more into practical things rather than faffing about drawing pretty concepts.

any advice?

taaah.
yay. I'm currently studying Quantity surveying at kingston as i prefer QS over BS but really they are both very good professions (biased obviously :biggrin:).

Here is more info about the uni and the course. you can see the modules you do in your first year are pretty core subjects, such as economics and law.

personally i am finding the course and the uni extremely enjoyable. In one of the coursework you receive, you have to design your own eco-home which i found was very enjoyable.
if you search "cscaipe" on kingstons website, you'll see that it is a room which is fully dedicated to just surveying students. there are computer facilities in there, tables and desks to work on etc.

heres the website for cscaipe: http://www.c-scaipe.rroom.net/about/

it is a sustainable room area and even has air con :biggrin:

Dont worry about your A levels, you will get in definitely. the minimum requirement is 270 ucas points.

see if you can go to an open day to look around the uni. i personally think the uni is not as bad as people make it out to be.
cheers pal....have some rep.
give some out today, i will give some tomoro if i remember.

Any RICS accredited degree is well worth doing.
