Department of Quantity Surveying

The Quantity Surveying Programme is designed to produce graduates with a theoretical base and  practical skills that would equip them to effectively plan and control project funds with particular  reference to cost advice and management in the construction industry. The graduates will acquire specialised skills in Building Information Modelling (BIM) and green building. They will utilise entrepreneurial competencies sandwiched with procurement and  marketing strategies among others, in policy and decision making.

The specific objectives of the programme are to inter alia:

         * Produce broad-based professionals with the necessary tools to collect data, analyse, model and

            present cost information on construction and engineering infrastructure.

         * Provide adequate education and training to ensure the necessary background for the registration

            of students, upon completion, with the Nigerian Institute of Quantity Surveyors (NIQS), the

            Quantity Surveyors Registration Board of Nigeria (QSRBN), the Institute of Construction

            Industry Arbitrators of Nigeria and with other equivalent foreign professional bodies.

         * Produce skilled and broad-based Quantity Surveyors sufficiently equipped to fit into an evolving

            advancement in building, civil, heavy engineering, petrochemical and manufacturing industries

            ready to face a wide range of financial challenges.

         * Inculcate in the students, a culture of continuous research and professional development in all 

            aspects of construction and heavy engineering thus enabling graduates to make enlightened and

            informed contributions.

         * Produce high-level manpower for efficient and effective project delivery if terms of cost, time

            and quality.
