To ensure that many students come from diverse backgrounds, bringing a mix of experiences and perspectives, institutions have a varied entry requirement system:

• Standard Entry: Applicants are expected to have a minimum of 4 GCSEs at Grade C/4 or above, which must include both English and Mathematics.
• For Mature Students: Institutions understand that academic qualifications don’t always showcase one’s potential. If you're returning to study after a period, your relevant work experience could be taken into account for entry.
• Alternative Qualifications: Institutions also accept BTEC Level 3, NVQ Level 3, and other nationally recognised qualifications as a pathway to this BA course.

The teaching approach emphasises practical knowledge and real-world scenarios. Students benefit from a blend of lectures, workshops, and industry visits. Assessment methods focus on coursework, group projects, and presentations. Traditional examinations are not a part of this programme, fostering a more hands-on and collaborative learning experience.

Upon successful completion of the programme, graduates have a wide range of career opportunities to explore, including:

• Construction Project Manager: Oversee and manage construction projects from inception to completion.
• Site Manager: Supervise and coordinate on-site construction activities.
• Quantity Surveyor: Manage project finances and costs.
• Building Control Surveyor: Ensure compliance with building regulations.
• Sustainability Consultant: Focus on sustainable construction and environmental responsibility.
• Facilities Manager: Oversee the maintenance and operation of buildings.
• Contract Manager: Manage construction contracts and agreements.
• Estimator: Calculate project costs and budgets.
• Construction Planner: Develop and manage project schedules
• Health and Safety Manager: Ensure safety compliance on construction sites.

For UK and EU Home Students:

• CV: If you don't have formal qualifications, a CV showcasing 2-5 years of work experience is necessary (the exact period might vary depending on the university).
• Passport/BRP: Essential for identity verification.
• Proof Of Address: To confirm your residential status.
• Qualifications: Provide any academic qualifications you possess, if available.
• EU Settlement Status (Share Code): A crucial document for EU students to confirm their residency rights in the UK.
• Personal Statement: A comprehensive essay, usually above 350 words, detailing your aspirations, reasons for choosing this course, and your relevant experiences (specific word count might vary depending on the university).
