The multidisciplinary nature of the course is particularly relevant in the twenty-first century where the environment, law and economics and the control of scarce resources affect the daily lives of people around the world. This degree differs from similar courses elsewhere because it’s not wholly vocational: there’s an emphasis on high intellectual and academic content, which appeals greatly to employers. However, the degree is accredited by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and allows graduates to progress directly to the Assessment of Professional Competence to become a full member of the RICS. It also gives partial exemption from the academic requirements of the Bar Council and Law Society for those intending to be lawyers. Our graduates go on to become lawyers, economists, civil servants, and to work for national and international agencies. Many go into financial, business or management careers, and others enter public service with local or national organizations, or proceed to further study and research.
