New Zealand Diploma in Construction (Level 6) (Quantity Surveying)

Summary

About the programme

Become a construction professional and help realise commercial and residential construction projects.

This programme is recognised by employers and industrial, academic and professional bodies - so when you graduate you'll be highly competent and industry ready.

Quantity Surveyors work with clients, architects, engineers, consultants, and local authorities to complete construction projects.

Quantity Surveyors can budget, price, and financially administer construction projects. Typical roles include Consultants, Estimators, Contract Administrators, and Contract Managers. With experience, quantity surveying can lead into the fields of project management, commercial management, and dispute resolution.

Want to study Construction Management instead?

No problem! Simply complete the first year of the programme with us (as the courses are shared across the quantity surveying and construction management pathway) and then enrol with another provider (e.g. Open Polytechnic) for your second year.

You would still complete the Regional Project Construction Management course with us in your second year as we offer that across the quantity surveying programme but could complete the rest of the specialised courses through the other provider (online if you chose to enrol with Open Polytechnic).
