consider a career in Surveying !
Surveying is not a single career , but a collective name for a group of careers within property , construction and land .
Surveying careers are surprisingly varied and include : - quantity surveying - estate agency - valuation and investment - project management - property and facilities management - planning and development - land surveying and mapping - building surveying
There is a significant increase in the availability of job opportunities for graduate surveyors in areas such as sustainable development , banking , valuation and estate agency .
There is also an increased demand for asset management and facilities management professionals from financial institutions and large multinationals such as Google , Facebook , BSkyB , Paddy Power and PayPal .
According to a recent report by the SCSI , due to the contraction in the property and construction sector in recent years , there is a growing shortage of suitably qualified surveying graduates .
Second level students entering third-level property , construction and land courses now are ideally placed to enter a profession during a period of recovery and expansion with bright job prospects expected in the coming years .
In addition , having been trained in a variety of technical and transferable skills , including economics , business , real estate , sustainability and construction studies , graduate surveyors will be well-positioned to bring their skills to work at the heart of a changing market , both at home and abroad .
