Careers

Architects and surveyors work in a variety of organisations, and it is typical for graduates to be employed within smaller, localised firms to begin with before moving on to bigger practices. Regardless of the size of the company, you might benefit from drawing on your work experiences and degree specialisms to determine what would suit you. Planning, construction, urban design and environmental services are just some of the departments that built environment graduates can work within, and these can occur across the sectors.
