Summary
Property developers plan and carry out the purchase, development, and sale of new or existing properties. The Bachelor of Construction (Property Development) gives you an insight into the process of developing a property - from initial concept to project completion and sale. Gain an understanding of the valuation, financing, and management of property and property portfolios, identify and develop project opportunities, and become familiar with construction practice, procurement tendering, property and contract law and administration, sustainable design, and design management. Studying full-time is like doing a full-time job. You might only be in lectures and workshops for 16 hrs a week, but you are expected to spend another 24 hours a week on self-directed study, quizzes, re-reading lecture content, and working on assignments. That makes 40 hours. We recognize many of you want or need to work whilst you are studying, but we would not recommend you to do any more than part-time study if you have a full-time job and don’t let your working hours overlap with your lecture times.

This applies to new and progressing students (including graduates).
