15 Credits AUTUMN



Aims/Description: Students studying this module will be introduced to the five methods of valuation that form the basis for working in the profession. Basic financial maths will be introduced and applied using client-related scenarios. At this stage learning is also supported by a bespoke online valuation tool. Lectures will provide introductory examples and students will be able to practice using weekly problem-solving tasks and tutorials/help-sessions. Linked to the lectures, professional employability skills will be further developed through the coursework that, firstly, focuses on providing advice to a client through the production of a valuation report and, secondly, requires students to consider the ethical dimensions of professional surveying practice and the rules of professional conduct.
