Location of Edinburgh Napier University
These days, it's no longer enough for business to simply own and run property and other property-based resources. They must be managed economically, efficiently and effectively, so as to provide maximum income or output.
This course will train you in the principles and methods of successful facilities management, from technological processes to commercial considerations. You'll gain insights and make valuable contacts through industry visits and guest speakers who are current industry practitioners.
Accredited by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, this internationally-recognised course will provide you with a stepping stone to professional qualifications. Broad-based in its outlook, it caters to students from a wide range of backgrounds who can bring skills from their current disciplines to the field. Ideally, you'll have a construction-related degree, but those with degrees in Management, Accountancy or even Social Sciences have successfully completed the course.
Skills
Through direct teaching and research, you'll learn the principles involved in facilities management. You'll develop your ability to analyse, assess and design solutions, and gain an understanding of the business drivers and constraints that influence these solutions. Problem solving skills will be highlighted, as well as effective communication and presentation methods.
Career Prospects
As Edinburgh's top university for Graduate Employability (HESA 2010) and one of the top in the UK for Graduate Prospects (The Independent and The Times University Guides for 2009), we can offer you a valuable head-start in your chosen career.
You'll graduate with the academic component of a professional qualification, ready to take up a position managing property assets for a variety of employers. Through your exposure to industry contacts throughout the course, you'll have the opportunity to make contacts that could lead to employment within the industry.
