Course in depth

What this course covers, who it suits and where it leads.

What you'll study

This part-time degree equips you with the financial, technical and legal knowledge central to quantity surveying and related construction roles. You'll usually begin with foundations in construction technology, built environment economics and surveying measurement. In your second year, you'll typically progress to project management, construction law and contracts, alongside stream-focused study in cost planning or building pathology. A course like this normally moves towards specialist options such as sustainability, BIM and digital construction, or real estate development in the final year, culminating in professional practice modules aligned to chartered bodies (RICS/CIOB) and a dissertation or major project applied to a live industry problem.

Who it's for

Most entrants hold another higher-education qualification; 90% of accepted students came in with prior higher-education experience. The part-time mode suits those balancing study with work or other commitments.

  • Standard analysis and admin
  • Repetitive processing tasks

More human than ever

  • Judgement and original thinking
  • Working with and leading people
  • Owning and sense-checking AI output
  • Ethics and accountability

The strongest graduates pair subject depth with the ability to use AI tools critically.

International students

What applying to Wrexham University from outside the UK involves: fees, English, visa, funding and living costs.

Tuition fees

International tuition is set per course by Wrexham University; international fees are typically £12,000–£30,000/year for classroom subjects and higher for lab/clinical ones. You’re not eligible for UK Tuition Fee or Maintenance Loans, so plan for fees plus living costs upfront.

English language

Most UK undergraduate courses ask for around IELTS 6.0–6.5 (no band below 5.5–6.0), or an accepted equivalent. If you’re just short, most universities run a pre-sessional English course that counts towards the requirement.

Student visa

You’ll usually need a Student visa (Student Route). After you accept an offer the university issues a CAS; you then show funds for fees plus about £1,023–£1,334/month living costs and pay the Immigration Health Surcharge for NHS access.

Scholarships & funding

Many universities offer international/global scholarships (often £2,000–£6,000/yr), check Wrexham University’s funding pages.

Living costs

Budget roughly £1,100–£1,400/month outside London and £1,400–£1,800/month in London for rent, food and travel; the figure also matters for your visa.

Working while you study

A Student visa usually allows up to 20 hours/week in term time and full-time in holidays, useful alongside study, though not something to rely on for fees.

Visa rules and fees change. Always confirm the current requirements with Wrexham University and gov.uk before you apply.
