About this course


The BA (Hons) Professional Practice in Quantity Surveying and Commercial Management degree is provided by the Institute for Work Based Learning at Middlesex University, which is an international leader in the field of professional practice and university level work based learning. The principle of work based learning is to build courses around the working and training practices of particular industries, sectors or employers, so that the learning that occurs every day as part of your normal training and practice, can be assessed and recognised in an academic framework without the need for unnecessary duplication. In this way, this degree programme makes it possible to gain an honours degree at the same time as completing the requirements for a higher apprenticeship and professional body membership.

You will need to be working in the construction sector and be likely to continue working in the sector for the duration of the programme (to be registered for a degree apprenticeship you will need to be employed as an apprentice)
You will have either: a foundation degree, HND or equivalent Level 5 qualification in quantity surveying or construction or have significant (normally at least 5 years') prior experience of work in the construction sector
English and Mathematics at Grade C GCSE or equivalent qualifications

Course programme

This degree is specifically designed to develop the knowledge, practical skills and competences you will need to operate as a senior quantity surveyor or commercial manager and achieve the higher apprenticeship Level 6 without the necessity of completing another qualification such as an NVQ. What you do in your workplace will be assessed as part of the honours degree and the assignments you complete will be based on what you do at work.

You will complete three Specialist Project modules that are designed to enable you to develop your knowledge, understanding, skills and competency in the key areas of: Managing Commercial Risk; Managing Project Scope and Specifications; and Managing Project Delivery. The specific form of the required assessment for these modules will be negotiated and agreed with your employer/workplace mentor and tutor. Typically, assessment will include a Reflective Project Report and presentation or other relevant artifacts.
