Hi everyone,

For those that are interested, I have a few months before I finish my BSc of property development (not Bristol).

Despite what some may think the degree is not as mickey mouse as it seems. The degree is RICS (Royal Institute of chartered surveyors)accredited as is the Bristol one from what I can only asume. The degree is not focused on knocking down walls and putting new carpets in and selling for a profit a few weeks later!

There are some technical elements throughout the whole degree, and could probably best be summed up within the valuation subjects. I am not talking about residential 'comparable' values either which someone working as an agent could do after ten mins of research.

The degree sets us up (once graduated) to go into the workplace to study/work towards our APC (Assesment of Professional Competence). Once completed and you pass you become a chartered surveyor.

PS does anyone know of a forum for property proffesionals, I can't seem to find one and need to ask some pressing questions about my future career. Unfortunately the property industry is going through some lean times in terms of grad recruitment!!

Cheers
