Although building and construction professionals constitute a relatively low proportion of the industry, there are opportunities for graduates to obtain employment with local government, civil engineering contractors, large firms, private construction companies, specialist skills firms and in their own businesses.
Graduate opportunities in the building and construction sector are mostly found in the following occupations:
Architecture
Building and construction management
Cartography and surveying
Interior design
Quantity surveying
Urban and regional planning
The construction industry has experienced strong growth in recent years. It is expected that this growth will continue over the next five yea
