Can you do the following things as a non estate surveyor: property valuations, plant & machinery valuations, mineral valuations, appraisals etc. You can't even engage in those services if you are not a trained and commissioned estate surveyor and valuer. kingwax7007: 4 Likes |

Remember all decisions r from mind choose wisely M a planner n forever going to be cos in everyday of my life I applied planning to it Thanks |

go and study Building if you find it difficult to decide on either of the 3 options presented to you... Building belongs to same faculty as URP, ESM and QS. I studied Building in school and I have applied the basics to business and its working for me. |

I HAVE 12 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT HANDLING PROJECTS ALL OVER NIGERIA. I AM A REGISTERED PROFESSIONAL IN MY OWN FIELD AND JUST TAKE THESS PIECES OF ADVISE FROM ME; ESTATE MGT. IS LUCRATIVE BUT HAS A LOT OF QUARKS DOING THEIR JOBS EVEN TO GOVERNMENT AGENCIES. URP IS THE WORST COURSE IN ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES. IT IS NOT EASILY SELF EMPLOYED. I HAVE NEVER MET A SELF EMPLOYED EMPLOYED URP IN MY 12 YRS OF PRACTICE. I HAVE NEVER EVER NEEDED ONE EVEN. IF URE NOT PATRONISED BY GOVT, URE FINISHED. THE QS HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE FINANCIAL BOSS AND WELL ENVIED BY ALL MEMBERS IN A TEAM OF CONSULTANTS ON ANY PROJECT. HE COMMANDS SO MUCH RESPECT AND ARE NEEDED ALL OVER THE WORLD. QS IS ONE OF THE LARGEST PROFESSIONS IN THE UK AND MIDDLE EAST. PLS ANY SELF EMPLOYED URP IN THE HOUSE THAT CAN BET HE IS NOT HUNGRY SHOULD BE BOLD TO COUNTER MY TAKE ON THIS. 1 Like |

No one can make the choice for you. You see how everyone is recommending according to their own preferences and experiences? Why did you apply for Architecture? Why don't you make a list of what you want from a profession? Discover what you are passionate about. You might gain more insight. You can also research the pros and cons of EM, QS, URP and Archy. Typically, in building construction sites, the consultant team comprises the Architect, Structural engineer, M&E engineers and the QS. The quantity surveyor costs the Specifications to produce the BoQ. He knows where the money is, prepares periodic valuations of work, advices on cost-saving possibilities, vets contractors' submissions for variations and advices the architect/pm on the merit of it. It's a lot of power that is often and easily abused. QS make money on projects. And even when they don't actively connive with the contractors, they get a lot of 'appreciation' for doing their job. Contractors know quantity surveyors to their homes. Estate management is a good profession but most people currently thriving in the business didn't study it. It's like studying project management as a first degree. What people do is study - say structural engineering, architecture or even quantity or land surveying, and then get an FMP. It gives you more versatility. URP, hmmm. I wish we were at the point where a planner becomes indispensable to any project. They should be more relevant to all forms of development. The NITP needs to push harder for this. However, currently, you would be hoping for employment at the ministry and it would not be challenging. That isn't to say things may not be different at the time you would be graduating. Try to speak with young professionals to tell you about their excitements in the various fields, and old professionals to tell you about their regrets. Then decide. Good luck! 2 Likes 1 Share |

Call07034780891: The fact that u've not seen a successful Qs professional does not mean they don't exist, u probably don't get involved with successful professionals in the construction industry. Every profession has it's own pro's and con's, all u have to do is highlight them for each profession and make ur choice. The only reason u won't make it in the construction industry is acting on ignorance, lack of information, poor planning, and lack of interest.

Btw, quantity surveyors don't cost residential works alone, civil engineering works are there. It all depends on how versatile you are. There are Valuers, Planners, Builders, Architects that are "useless" out there and there are some that are useful and making it big.
