Course summary
Our HNC Quantity Surveying (HTQ) course is developed to provide a broad introduction to construction and different quantity surveying functions, with an emphasis on developing and strengthening core skills while preparing students for specialist subjects at Level 5 or to enter employment with the qualities necessary for job roles that require some personal responsibility.
Students will gain a wide range of construction knowledge linked to practical skills gained through research, independent study, directed study and workplace scenarios.
The course is delivered by lecturers with industry experience, with industry-standard facilities, including a wide range of levelling and surveying equipment and professional software packages such as AutoCAD.
