BSc (Hons) Rural Property Management

Harper Adams University, United Kingdom
Save

Course Overview

Rural Property Management graduates are likely to progress to positions in managing rural property, estates and land, often within a firm of chartered surveyors specialising in this work or, in some instances, as a resident agent on a more significant estate.

You could manage everything from the care of historic buildings to new developments in the countryside (or where town meets country) and the management of agricultural, residential and commercial tenancies.

You will cover aspects of law, valuation, construction, taxation, property development, sustainable energy, conservation and more to ensure you have the full breadth of knowledge required to make the right business decisions about rural property.

This RICS-accredited programme is ideal for aspiring rural practice chartered surveyors with a specialist interest in property assets.
